Brentford has turned down a second bid from Manchester United for Bryan Mbeumo, signalling their intent to keep the player amid growing transfer interest.
Manchester United's pursuit of Brentford winger Bryan Mbeumo has hit a snag, with their second bid, reportedly worth up to £62.5 million, rejected.
However, the player himself has reportedly informed Brentford that he only wants a move to Old Trafford this summer.
Bryan Mbeumo has been a key target for United manager Ruben Amorim, who is looking to bolster his attack. The Cameroonian international impressed last season, scoring 20 Premier League goals for the Bees.

According to The Athletic, Bryan Mbeumo has made his intentions clear, telling both Tottenham and Brentford that Old Trafford is his sole destination. While this second bid has been rebuffed, talks between the clubs are ongoing.
Manchester United are eager to secure Bryan Mbeumo before pre-season training begins in early July.

Gen Z Protests: How the Game of Football Has Become a Peaceful Form of Expression
In Kenya, Generation Z is redefining peaceful resistance by using football as a powerful and innovative medium for peaceful protests.
Since joining Brentford in 2019 for £5.8 million, Mbeumo has become a potent attacking force, scoring 70 goals in 242 appearances across all competitions, including 42 in 136 Premier League matches. Much of this success came under the tutelage of Frank, who recently took the helm at Tottenham.
While Tottenham were hoping to leverage the Frank connection, Bryan Mbeumo, after a period of consideration, has reaffirmed his desire to join Manchester United.
The 25-year-old's contract expires next year, although Brentford holds an option for a 12-month extension. If a deal can be struck, he would become United's second signing of the summer, following the arrival of Matheus Cunha for £62.5 million.
