Bryan Mbeumo makes final Tottenham transfer decision amid Man Utd medical

Bryan Mbeumo looks set to sign for Manchester United in the next week, football.london understands.

Mbeumo enjoyed his best goalscoring season in the Premier League in 2024/25 with 20 goals - a total that was only beaten by Mohamed Salah, Alexander Isak and Erling Haaland.

After six seasons with Brentford, the Cameroon international is now looking to make the next step in his career and has been heavily linked with a move away from west London during the summer transfer window.

Mbeumo has been tipped to join Manchester United almost since the season ended, but Thomas Frank's move from Brentford to Tottenham Hotspur set a cat amongst the pigeons when it came to his future.

United made a bid of around £55million that was initially rejected by the Bees, with Spurs then linked with upping that offer to try and hijack the deal.

Frank has had a huge impact on Mbeumo's career in England and the opportunity to stay in London with his former boss was seen as a positive.

But Mbeumo has always seemingly had his heart set on a move to Old Trafford and football.london understands that the transfer is all-but done with a medical set to take place in the coming days.

United may well wait until July 1 to announce the deal for Profit and Sustainability Rules purposes. Our friends at the Manchester Evening News reported on Thursday that the Red Devils were closing in on a deal to sign the 25-year-old.

Mbeumo will join Matheus Cunha as new Manchester United signings this summer, while Spurs will likely turn their attention back to Eberechi Eze, who was always seen as the first choice signing this summer, although they do now face competition from north London rivals Arsenal for his signature.
