Bryan Mbeumo will finally fulfill his dream of wearing the Manchester United shirt. After lengthy discussions, the Red Devils have reached a full agreement with Brentford at the end of this week. Following offers of €65 million and €70 million that were turned down, the Manchester club has finally convinced the Bees with a transfer fee estimated at €82 million, bonuses included. Most importantly, United secured favorable payment terms: the massive sum will be paid in four installments.

Bryan Mbeumo is expected to undergo his medical in the coming days before signing a five-year contract running until 2030, with an option for an additional year until June 2031.
