Manchester United have launched their opening bid to sign Brentford star Bryan Mbeumo, according to The Athletic.
The Red Devils offer is worth up to £55 million, with a £45m initial fee plus £10m in add-ons.
Talks will continue between the two clubs, and United are hopeful of securing a deal for the talented forward.
Newcastle United, Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal have also been linked, but United are currently leading the race.
Mbeumo has a year left on his contract at the Gtech Community Stadium, with the club having an option to extend it by another year.
He is keen to join the Manchester giants but is reportedly hoping to earn £250,000-per-week at Old Trafford.
Mbeumo has been excellent for Brentford since joining the club in 2019.
He helped the Bees secure Premier League promotion in 2021 and has also been a consistent performer in the English top-flight.
The right winger has bagged 70 goals and 51 assists in 242 appearances across all competitions for Brentford.
The 2024-25 season was his most productive as he tallied 20 goals and nine assists in 42 total games.
