MU wants to turn Brentford's Bryan Mbeumo star into the second contract in the summer, and the signature of the Cameroon striker will directly send a message about the Red Devil's ambition.
After a 2024/25 disaster campaign, MU has no choice but to pour money into the summer market. After completing the recruitment of Matheus Cunha from Wolves for £ 62.5 million earlier this month, MU now wants to own MBeumo. The Cameroon player informed his relatives that he moved to Old Trafford this summer despite MU's suggestions rejected by Brentford.
With Cunha, MU has gained the signature of a specialized 10th midfielder, perfect fit with Ruben Amorim's 3-4-2-1 diagram. It is expected to take on the position of the left -winged public, the Cunha will be responsible for creating and scoring goals. He directly participated in 21 goals in 33 appearances in the Premier League season 2024/25, creating 6 goals next to 15 goals scored by himself.
But talking about the effectiveness, Mbeumo is also ranked above the Cunha. The 25 -year -old striker scored 20 goals in the Premier League last season. Only Mohamed Salah (29), Alexander Isak (23) and Erling Haaland (22) have a better achievement than Mbeumo. It should be noted that the other three strikers are on the payroll of the Champions League teams, while Mbeumo is only 10th with Brentford. That detail expresses MBeumo's outstanding personal quality in a mid -range system in the Premier League. The current MU is not much better than Brentford and like Cunha, Mbeumo is expected to integrate quickly.
The signature of MBeumo will send a real message about the Red Devil's ambition. Although he was not the striker MU wanted to fill in the No. 9 position, he had the ability that no other striker at Old Trafford could do. MU has not scored at least 20 goals in the Premier League in a season since Robin Van Persie scored 26 goals in the last season of Sir Alex Ferguson of 2012/13. A stature club like MU should have defaulted to own such “burden” stars, but they have not had more than the past decade.
Both Bruno Fernandes and Cristiano Ronaldo have almost scored 20 goals in a Premier League season in recent years, each of them have two goals behind the 2020/21 and 2021/22 seasons. Marcus Rashford scored 17 goals in the Premier League out of 30 goals in all competitions in the 2022/23 season.
If Mbeumo joined MU and achieved nearly 20 goals next season, he will immediately be listed as the best contract of the club after Ferguson. Just achieve the number of goals in two numbers, especially when he is not a true striker, will be considered a success for the launch season at Old Trafford.
MU needs a “assassin” this summer to carry the responsibility of the attack instead of Bruno Fernandes or Amad Diallo. Mbeumo offers a great option. The same thing can be talked about. However, both of these players have never had a pressure club equivalent to MU. It should be known that there were too many defeated examples at Old Trafford, whether before or after leaving the MU they all played excellently. From the huge aura in the past to the harsh reality, it has created a really toxic environment, which can kill any talent. And that will be a big challenge for the bravery of the rookie.
| Mbeumo finished closing the number of shirts in MU According to Men, in the process of negotiations on personal terms, Bryan Mbeumo wanted to wear the number 19 shirt at MU – the same shirt he wore in Brentford. In fact, if MU sells Marcus Rashford, the number 10 will be empty. However, both MBEumo and CuHa “dodge” the iconic shirts to avoid pressure. |
