Brian Mbomo's patience waiting for Manchester United is running out.
The British Evening Standard is increasingly dissatisfied with the delay in Manchester United's offer to sign him on the 8th (Korea Standard Time). United are considering a third offer for Brentford striker Mbommo, but no agreement has yet been reached between the clubs. Mbomo has clearly stated his intention to go to Old Trafford, and Brentford want more than 62.5 million pounds (about 116.6 billion won) spent earlier on recruiting Matheus Cunha, according to the report.
According to the media, "'Manchester United has already sent offers twice, but both have been rejected, and both the player himself and Brentford are feeling frustrated as negotiations are slow. Brentford is sticking to at least 63 million pounds (about 117.6 billion won), and it believes its demands may be lower than the market, considering the recent transfers of Noni Madueke and Antony Elanga. Mbommo scored 20 goals in the Premier League last season and is also reportedly satisfied with the salary conditions he will be offered in the event of a move to Manchester United, he added.
Manchester United have been constantly approaching Mbommo, but so far both offers have been rejected by Brentford. Manchester United's second offer was more than 60 million pounds (about 112 billion won), including the bonus clause, but Brentford is judging Mboumo as a better player than Cunha, who Manchester United acquired from Wolverhampton.
Therefore, Brentford maintains that Mbömo's value is by no means excessive under the current market conditions, and maintains a firm stance. This has disrupted Manchester United's plans to reinforce its offense and has also been affected by its overall strategy for the summer transfer market.
Mbomo has also received interest from Tottenham and Newcastle, but he has virtually ruled out other offers by prioritizing the trend from the beginning of the transfer. In particular, he has responded positively to Manchester United's personal conditions and has wanted negotiations as soon as possible. However, as time goes by, the transfer is being delayed, and the player is gradually losing patience.
Finally, Brentford's football director Phil Giles noted last week that it is a fully possible scenario for Mbömo to stay in the team next season, and Mbömo is likely to move this summer along with captain Christian Norgaard and long-term team manager Thomas Frank, but the club plans to keep the player if the desired amount is not met.
With the delay in recruiting Mbomo, Manchester United is having difficulty reinforcing its offense. Manchester United intended to supply new players while clearing Marcus Rashford, Alejandro Garnacho, Jadon Sancho and Antony. However, nothing has been achieved so far except for recruiting Cunha. The release work is not being done properly, so it is questionable whether it will be possible to take additional recruitment moves after recruiting Mbömo.
