Manchester United are in talks to sign Brentford star Bryan Mbeumo as they look to overhaul their attacking options in the summer transfer window. Ruben Amorim has prioritised the addition of forward players to his first-team squad, with a preference for those who are already proven in the Premier League.
Mbeumo could join Matheus Cunha at Old Trafford next season after a deal was agreed with Wolves to pay his £62.5 million release clause. It is a huge boost to Amorim in the same week it was revealed Bruno Fernandes had rejected a lucrative offer to join Saudi club Al-Hilal.
United will also look to sign a striker in the coming months to add further firepower to their forward line, while player sales are expected to help fund their transfer business. Here is a look at what their attacking options could look like next season in a dream scenario.
