Manchester United and Brentford are yet to agree on a deal for Bryan Mbeumo and the Reds’ may soon be dealt a major blow in their pursuit of the Cameroonian\"BryanMan United could soon be dealt a major blow in their pursuit of a deal for Brentford star Bryan Mbeumo (Image: Getty Images)<\/p>\n

Manchester United<\/a> could be dealt a huge blow in their pursuit of Brentford’s Bryan Mbeumo<\/a>. United’s initial bid of \u00a355million did not tempt the Bees, but The Manchester Evening News understands the Reds submitted a revised offer exceeding \u00a360m several weeks ago.<\/p>\n

At the time it was understood that would be enough for Brentford,<\/a> but negotiations remain ongoing. It is understood that the Reds are still working on a deal to sign Mbeumo so he can feature on the club’s pre-season tour of the United States<\/a>.<\/p>\n

After their first pre-season friendly against Leeds United in Stockholm on Saturday, United travel to Chicago on Tuesday and will be based in the city for the majority of their three-match tour.<\/p>\n

However, United’s potential deal for Mbeumo will reportedly be affected by interest in Brentford striker Yoane Wissa. It has been reported that the Bees are unlikely to sell both Mbeumo and Wissa in the same window.<\/p>\n

And BBC Sport<\/a> report that Newcastle United are expected to accelerate their interest in Wissa in the next 24 hours after withdrawing from their pursuit of Hugo Ekitike.<\/p>\n

Wissa is said to be open to leaving the Bees for a chance to play in the Champions League,<\/a> and Tottenham Hotspur are also reportedly interested.<\/p>\n

Wissa’s departure from the Gtech Community Stadium would make any deal for Mbeumo extremely difficult and represent a huge blow to the Reds.<\/p>\n

United have signed just two players this summer. The Reds activated Matheus Cunha’s \u00a362.5million release clause early last month<\/a>, bringing the Wolves forward to Old Trafford<\/a> on a five-year deal with an option for an extra year. Paraguayan left-back Diego Leon has also joined Ruben Amorim’s side, but may be loaned out.<\/p>\n

The Reds<\/a> are also yet to shift anyone from their squad, despite Marcus Rashford<\/a>, Antony, Tyrell Malacia, Jadon Sancho, and Alejandro Garnacho being deemed surplus to requirements by Amorim.<\/p>\n
