Man United pursuing move for £50m-rated Premier League star in addition to £62.5m signing of Matheus Cunha - as Ruben Amorim begins summer rebuild after dismal season

Manchester United are pursuing an interest in Brentford’s Bryan Mbuemo even though Ruben Amorim will make Matheus Cunha his first signing of the summer.

United have agreed terms with Cunha over a five-year contract with the option of an additional year, and are ready to hand him Marcus Rashford’s No.10 shirt.

However, they have yet to trigger the Brazilian’s £62.5million release clause at Wolves which must be paid in three instalments of £20.85m over two years.

United are expected to make a formal approach and Cunha could travel to Manchester for a medical before the end of the week.
