'70 million pounds (about 130.8 billion won). Let's go...'

Manchester United, desperate to recruit the striker, eventually lifted 'Limit'. It brought in the funding power from Brendford to recruit striker Brian Mbommo and blew 'Final Deal'. For Brentford, there is no more reason to refuse. This is because Manchester United has satisfied the £70 million transfer fee that was urgently raised to prevent Mbomo's transfer.

Mbomo is likely to end up in Manchester United's arms.




Team Talk, a British media outlet, reported on the 17th (Korean time) 'Manchester United has sent a final offer of £70 million to recruit Mbömo, and it is expected to be approved soon.'

Manchester United have been pushing to reinforce their strikers in the transfer market this summer at the request of head coach Hoobeng Amorim. I wanted Brentford ace Mboumo all the time. Mbomo himself strongly wanted the trend. An agreement has already been reached between the player and the club.

However, consultations between clubs were not easy. Manchester United initially sent an offer of £55 million (£45 million plus £10 million in surcharges) to sign Mboumo. However, this primary proposal was dismissed by Brentford. Until then, Brentford wanted £65 million.

Manchester United then sent a second offer of £62.5 million (£55 million + £7.5 million extra). This is in line with the £62.5 million transfer fee paid for Matheus Cunha. But Brentford didn't even accept this offer. This is because Mbomo, who scored 20 league goals last season and scored the most goals after Mohamed Salah, Erling Holan and Alexander Isaac, was undervalued.

As a result, Brentford quickly raised Mbömo's transfer fee to £70 million. As a result, Manchester United's recruitment of Mbömo seemed to have fallen through. Brentford at the same time communicated to Manchester United that they wanted to receive a higher amount of money as a basic transfer fee, not an additional transfer fee.

After about three weeks, Manchester United seemed to have completely taken their foot out of Mbömo's recruitment.




However, the silent Manchester United brought up 'the final offer'. In the end, Manchester United offered Brentford the £70 million they wanted. This includes an additional £5 million for the basic £65 million. The fact that Manchester United sent the last offer quickly spread to the transfer market. David Ornstein, Fabrizio Romano, and Ben Jacobs, who are familiar with the news of the transfer market, confirmed this.

The Evening Standard reports that the Brentford club will eventually accept Manchester United's offer of a £70 million Mbombo transfer.

Reporter Romano also said on his SNS that Manchester United maintains confidence in recruiting Mbömo and has raised the bid price. According to Ornstein's report, the offer is up to 70 million pounds and includes the surcharge. Negotiations with Brentford are still ongoing at the moment,' it said. In the end, given these circumstances, Mbömo is expected to wear Manchester United's uniform and accompany him on the U.S. pre-season tour next week.
