Brentford star Bryan Mbeumo has reportedly told his club that he feels Manchester United’s latest bid for him is “fair” and should be accepted.
That’s according to journalist Ben Jacobs, who also told United Stand that it now looks like Man Utd are prepared to walk away from negotiations over Mbeumo if their latest improved bid is not successful.
See below for details from Jacobs, posted from the United Stand X account…

Will Manchester United end up signing Bryan Mbeumo?
The Mbeumo to United saga has really dragged on, and it seems we’re still none the wiser if it will actually end up going through.

MUFC fans will no doubt be hugely frustrated, but at least it seems it’s not entirely over just yet, as had been reported by the Guardian yesterday.
Mbeumo is a superb player who is surely too good not to get a big six move at some point, but of course it’s only fair that Brentford demand big money if he is to leave.
It will be interesting…
