Manchester United Submit Opening Bid To Brentford For Bryan Mbeumo—-Manchester United have reportedly submitted an opening offer to sign Cameroon forward Bryan Mbeumo from Brentford.

The opening offer values Mbeumo at £45million plus £10m in add-ons, which is some way below the kind of fee it would take for Brentford to consider selling their Cameroon international forward.

But talks are ongoing as United work to reach an agreement for a player targeted by head coach Ruben Amorim to strengthen his attacking unit.

The Athletic previously reported that the 25-year-old wanted to join United and that the Old Trafford club were set to open talks with Brentford as they pursue an agreement to sign the forward this summer.

He enjoyed a breakout campaign in 2024-25, scoring 20 goals and adding eight assists as Brentford finished 10th.

Thomas Frank has been open that the club would be open to selling Mbeumo, but only if their valuation is met.

“If the right price — and that’s going to be expensive — is coming, then I’m sure the club will be open to it,” Frank told Sky Sports last month.

A versatile attacking player, Mbeumo is comfortable playing both out wide or through the middle.

He has made 242 appearances for Brentford since joining from French side Troyes in 2019. He has scored 70 goals and provided 51 assists in that time. He also has been capped 18 times by Cameroon and he has scored four goals.

Manchester United are in the market for attacking reinforcements this summer after registering just 44 league goals last term, second-worst outside of teams who were relegated.

Matheus Cunha will arrive from Wolverhampton Wanderers while they held a strong interest in Ipswich Town’s Liam Delap, before he ultimately opted to join Chelsea.

BREAKING: Saka Fires Arsenal Into First Champions League Final in 20 Years—-TCN reports that Arsenal have qualified for the 2026 UEFA Champions League final after a narrow victory over Atlético Madrid, with Bukayo Saka scoring the decisive goal.

Saka’s strike proved to be the difference as Arsenal secured a 1-0 win in the second leg, progressing 2-1 on aggregate following a 1-1 draw in Spain.

The result sees the North London club reach the Champions League final for the first time in two decades, marking a significant milestone in their European journey.

Arsenal will now face either defending champions Paris Saint-Germain or German giants Bayern Munich in the final scheduled for May 30.

This will be only the second Champions League final appearance in Arsenal’s history. Their first came in 2006, when they were narrowly defeated by FC Barcelona.

The Gunners will now be aiming to go one step further and claim their first-ever Champions League title.

Chelsea Losing Streak Hits Six as Forest Close in on Safety

Chelsea Losing Streak Hits Six as Forest Close in on Safety—-Chelsea’s miserable end to the season reached another damaging milestone as they slumped to a sixth consecutive league defeat, losing 3-1 to a resurgent Nottingham Forest side. The result marks the first time since November 1993 that the Chelsea have lost six league matches in a row, underlining the depth of their current crisis.

Already enduring their worst run since 1912, the Blues showed little sign of recovery as Forest struck early and never looked back. Taiwo Awoniyi opened the scoring inside two minutes, setting the tone for a dominant away performance. Forest doubled their lead from the penalty spot after Malo Gusto brought down Awoniyi in the box, allowing Igor Jesus to convert.

Awoniyi added his second of the night early in the second half, finishing from a low delivery by Morgan Gibbs-White to make it 3-0 and effectively end the contest.

The moment was further overshadowed by a worrying collision that saw Jesse Derry stretchered off and taken to hospital.

Chelsea’s frustrations continued to mount. Cole Palmer saw his first-half penalty saved by Matz Sels, while a potential goal from João Pedro was ruled out for offside after a VAR review.

Pedro did eventually provide a moment of quality, scoring a stunning stoppage-time bicycle kick from a Marc Cucurella cross to end Chelsea’s goal drought, which had stretched over nine hours of play. However, it proved to be little more than a consolation.

The Blues, currently under interim boss Calum McFarlane following the dismissal of Liam Rosenior, have now gone without a Premier League win since January. Their recent defeats have been particularly heavy, with this result nearly marking a fourth 3-0 loss in five games.

Chelsea remain ninth in the table, now 10 points adrift of the Champions League places and increasingly at risk of slipping into the bottom half. Meanwhile, Forest’s impressive run under Vitor Pereira continues, with the club now unbeaten in seven matches and sitting six points clear of the relegation zone.
