Manchester United have made a comeback of sorts on Sunday when they played out a 2-2 draw against Liverpool at the Anfield arena. Considering what transpired in the last few weeks, a draw nonetheless was a much-needed result for Rubin Amorim's side. Following the culmination of the game, United captain Bruno Fernandes expressed how the team needs to show character and play as offensively week in and week out, as they did on this occasion.
Manchester United Preparing £43 Million For Bryan Mbeumo
As Rubin Amorim has taken the helm from Erik ten Hag, he is yet to make signings that will suit his style of play. And as it turned it, reportedly the Red Devils have zeroed in on a name, who will add to the attacking prowess of the team.
Per reports, Manchester United boss Rubin Amorim may close the deal with Brentford's Bryan Mbeumo and could bring him onboard in January for a fee of 43 million.
Mbeumo is in exceptional form this season. The Cameroonian has netted 13 goals this season, matching the tally wioth Cole Palmer and Alexander Isak, staying behind the leaders Mohamed Salah and Erling Haaland.
As one of the standout performers in the Premier League, it's little surprise that the highly-rated star has attracted attention from top clubs like Liverpool and Newcastle United. However, it may be Sporting CP, led by Rúben Amorim, that ultimately makes a move to secure his services.
According to Fichajes, Brentford's Bryan Mbeumo caught the attention of Manchester United's attention after his steller performances this season. The Cameroonian international has consistently impressed in the top-flight, scoring nine goals in each of the last two campaigns, and has taken his game to new heights this season with 13 goals in just 20 appearances. Having showcased his skills in the Championship, where he netted 23 goals over two seasons, Mbeumo has now established himself as one of the Premier League's top stars.
As the player carries speed, control, and has the ideal finishing of a forward and interest from top clubs was expected. Manchester United, who have been facing crises in the goal-scoring region for a prolonged period could rope him in the January transfer window.
