The running of MU was bought and bought by striker Bryan Mbeumo of Brentford, it turned out to be due to “learning” Arsenal and Liverpool in the transfer market.
MU ended in the bottom half of the 2024/25 Premier League rankings and was not eligible to attend the European Cup new season. In this context, MU has been active in the summer market this year, when she tried to sign a contract with Maheus Cuha, who joined the Club from Wolves at the beginning of this summer transfer period. According to journalist Rudy Galetti, MU is ready to pay 63 million pounds plus the surcharges to officially sign a contract with Brentford striker MBEumo. The previous personal terms have been agreed upon by oral, and the final details with Brentford are expected to be completed soon. MU sets the goal to complete this deal within the next two weeks, namely before July 7, the time the team started to focus on preparing for the new season.
After scoring 20 goals in the Premier League for Brentford last season, Bryan Mbeumo proved itself as one of the top goalscorers of the highest foggy tournament. Also added, Mbeumo had to take on the responsibility in Brentford attack, after Ivan Toney moved to Saudi Arabia's Al Ahli club last summer. After scoring nine goals in the 2023/24 season, Mbeumo made great progress, when 20 goals in the Premier League last season.
Mbeumo mainly plays on the right wing. According to data collected by Transfermarkt, 16 of his 20 goals in the Premier League last season were scored when he played on the right. However, he also showed his strength when arranged in a central position, scoring four goals in six matches as a striker.
The 25 -year -old Cameroon, playing comfortably in both the position of the striker or central striker, means that he will bring a versatile presence to MU if he joins the “Red Devils”. MU usually plays in a 3-4-2-1 scheme, meaning Mbeumo is expected to play at the number 10 on the right wing. However, he can also play in the left wing position in Ruben Amorim's favorite diagram. He can also play in the position of the striker and lead MU's attack. Despite signing a contract with Maheus Cuha and trying to complete the agreement with Mbeumo, MU was still determined to sign a contract with a real player 9 this summer. If the search for the striker of MuBy is delayed, Amorim may be confident enough to ask Mbeumo to take the attack when there is no real number 9.
In fact, MU has been criticized in recent years for not following the trend of Arsenal and Liverpool in signing contracts with versatile strikers. In recent years, Arsenal has signed a contract with players like Gabriel Jesus, Leandro Trossard and Kai Havertz, who have the ability to play in many positions in the attack, while Liverpool quickly recruit players like Darwin Nunez, Cody Gakpo, Luis Diaz and Diogo Jota, comfortable players in the position of cashew wing or central midfield.
MU attack contracts in recent years are only one -way. For example, Antony is limited to playing on the right wing. However, Mbeumo has the ability to play on both sides of the wing or in the middle, meaning he will bring a versatility. A versatile striker has been absent in MuQu's attacking arsenal for a long time. In other words, MU is “learning” Arsenal and Liverpool.
