Manchester United have made a third bid for Brentford forward Bryan Mbeumo that could be worth up to £70m. The offer is understood to be an initial £65m, with £5m in add-ons. Brentford are yet to discuss the offer.

Manchester United have tabled a third bid to sign Bryan Mbeumo from Brentford. The Red Devils opened talks with a £45 million bid plus £10 million for the Cameroon international, but that offer was rejected out of hand by the Bees.

Brentford, who have already lost long-serving head coach Thomas Frank and captain Christian Norgaard this summer, could be persuaded into selling both Mbeumo and Wissa. But any deal of that nature would likely see Man United pay significantly over the odds for Mbeumo.
