BRYAN MBEUMO should be a Manchester United player by the end of next week.
Despite Brentford rejecting a second bid of £62.5million on Friday, the transfer is still expected be approved after Tuesday as United enter a new financial year when PSR resets on June 30.
That allows the Cameroon international’s fee to be included in the club’s accounts at the end of next season.
Mbeumo, 25, will sign a five-year contract worth around £180,000 a week.
But, contrary to reports, the Red Devils have not set a date for his medical just yet.
Mbeumo has informed Brentford and Tottenham of his decision to join United, according to The Athletic.
The winger enjoyed a standout season, scoring a career-best 20 Premier League goals and providing seven assists to help Brentford secure a top-half finish – only Mo Salah, Alexander Isak and Erling Haaland notched more.
To compare, United’s highest goalscorers Bruno Fernandes and Amad Diallo scored just eight goals in the league last season.
Additionally, only two Prem players covered more distance or attempted more sprints last term, making Mbeumo one of the hardest grafters in the league.
Boss Ruben Amorim wants him signed in time for the start of pre-season training on July 7.

Mbeumo is under contract at Brentford until June 2026 and they have an option to extend the deal by a further 12 months, with likes of Arsenal, Newcastle and Spurs previously linked.
An opening low-ball offer from United worth £45million plus £10m in add-ons fell some way short of Brentford’s valuation.
A second proposal at £55m and £7.5m of bonuses was also rejected — but talks continue as the 20-time English champions attempt to find a compromise.
Admiration for Mbeumo at Spurs increased after Thomas Frank moved from Brentford to replaced sacked Ange Postecoglou.
But the talented winger notified Frank and Brentford that should he depart the Gtech Community Stadium now, it will be for Old Trafford.
Reports of Spurs submitting a bid have been denied in North London and they are no longer pursuing the situation
SunSport has reached out to Tottenham for comment.
This comes weeks after reports claimed Mbeumo chose United over title challengers and Champions League qualifiers Arsenal.
The Brentford ace returned from a lengthy injury he sustained in the 2023-24 and proved his fitness, featuring in all 38 league games.
An international colleague of United goalkeeper Andre Onana, Mbeumo is likely to miss four weeks of the 2025-26 campaign because of Cameroon’s participation in the Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco.
Mbeumo joined Brentford from French club Troyes in 2019, when the Bees were still in the Championship.
He has scored 70 goals in 242 appearances in all competitions, helping the West London club earn promotion to the top flight in 2021.
Funds are said to be available for United to secure the Mbeumo without requiring sales in advance.
Nonetheless, United hope to sell Marcus Rashford, Alejandro Garnacho, Jadon Sancho and Antony over the coming weeks.
Meanwhile, goalkeeper Tom Heaton, 39, has signed a new one-year deal at United, taking him into his 20th pro season.
Amorim‘s side have already announced the £62.5million signing of Matheus Cunha from Wolves.
