Bryan Mbeumo is set to go on Manchester United’s pre-season tour of the US next week after Brentford finally accepted an offer worth a total of £71million for the Cameroon forward.
The longest-running transfer saga of the summer so far came to an end on Friday when United agreed to pay £65m plus £6m add-ons for Mbeumo in four instalments.
Having failed with two bids totalling £55m and £62.5m last month, United made a third attempt on Thursday when they raised their offer to £70m. The final agreement includes an extra £1m in add-ons.
