Manchester United are close to securing arrival number two of the summer transfer window.<\/strong><\/p>\n

There are a minimum of four big transfers that Manchester United<\/a> need to complete this summer.<\/p>\n

However, having already agreed to sign Matheus Cunha<\/a> from Wolves, one of these deals is already done.<\/p>\n

This happened on the 1st of June, and now less than one week later and Ineos are ramping up toward completing summer signing number two for Ruben Amorim.<\/p>\n

United are closing in on Bryan Mbeumo<\/a>, with the Cameroonian the subject of one official bid and another is subject of a potential new offer imminently.<\/p>\n

With the Brentford forward increasingly likely, Amorim is thought to be a fan of Mbeumo\u2019s speed<\/a>. Now, Fabrizio Romano has shared the latest on the deal.<\/p>\n

Mbeumo is perfect for Amorim\u2019s demands<\/a> and a deal feels like it could be on the cusp of completion, with Romano now speaking on Friday night on the latest around his transfer situation.<\/p>\n

\u201cBryan Mbeumo wants to go to Manchester United. He wants to wear the United shirt, he wants to play at Old Trafford.<\/p>\n

\u201cHis priority is Man United, despite approaches from Arsenal, Newcastle, and more clubs.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe has an agreement with United and the club is now working to finalise the transfer. Both clubs returned to talks today to finalise the deal.\u201d<\/p>\n

Romano also stated that United are now \u201caccelerating\u201d the deal toward completion as the second bid is awaited eagerly.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Mbeumo looks almost set to become the third major signing of Amorim\u2019s reign, but what shirt number will be wear upon signing for United?<\/p>\n

What shirt number will Bryan Mbeumo wear at Manchester United?<\/p>\n

With Mbeumo closing in on his dream move, it is becoming interesting which shirt number he will be wearing when he dons the United red.<\/p>\n

At Brentford, Mbeumo wears the number 19 shirt which is currently free at United<\/a> making this the obvious shirt number for the Cameroon international forward to take.<\/p>\n

Alternatively, Mbeumo could easily end up with the number 17 shirt once Alejandro Garnacho is sold. Meanwhile the number 10 shirt is already set to be Cunha\u2019s<\/a> when Marcus Rashford\u2019s exit is confirmed.<\/p>\n

With Mason Mount likely to keep the number seven and Joshua Zirkzee to keep the number 11 these are off the table, while the number nine will be reserved for a striker later this summer.<\/p>\n

If Mbeumo is handed the number 19, he will follow in the footsteps of Dwight Yorke, Marcus Rashford and Raphael Varane.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Manchester United are close to securing arrival number two of the summer transfer window.
