Manchester United will buy Mbemo at a price increase! The special palace-forced model failed, Brentford insists on 60 million

Manchester United is preparing to submit a revised offer to Brentford, after the club's £55 million offer had been rejected. The Little Bee Legion asked for £70 million, while the Red Devils' first offer was a fixed fee of £45 million plus a floating clause of £10 million. After £62.5 million introduced Cunha, Mbemo was regarded as Manchester United's key signing target. Sir Jim Ratcliff's Inez team took a clever move, first convinced the 25-year-old Cameroon striker to express his desire to join Manchester United, thus forcing other potential buyers, such as Newcastle United, to avoid "price-raising" situations and increase transfer fees.

However, Brentford said they have the option to renew Mbemo for one year, so although its existing contract expires next summer, it will not significantly lower the price. The team's coach Thomas Frank said Mbemo will be sold this summer, but his price is certainly very high. The total value reaches £50 million, which is the condition that the team insists on.

Mbemo has performed well this season, scoring 20 goals for Brentford and contributing 8 assists, playing almost every minute of the Premier League, and was replaced for only 3 minutes! Therefore, Brentford believes that his price cannot be much lower than Cunnia, whose figure is 15 goals and 6 assists. Italian transfer expert Fabricio Romano confirmed that Brentford asked for £70 million, but could be negotiated to reduce the amount to a level similar to Cunha's worth £62.5 million.

Brentford may accept some of the transfer fees in the form of floating clauses, but they require that these bonuses be activated based on the performance of the player, rather than the team's record. Because the Bees have confidence in Mbemo's personal abilities, but the overall Red Devils Club is not convincing, and there are still huge questions about whether they can qualify for the Champions League next season.

In this regard, Manchester United is very confident that they can complete Mbemo's transfer transaction and will continue to quote. Football finance expert Kieran Maguire explained that the Red Devils can fully afford to pay £120 million in transfer fees for Mbemo and Cunha, which will not lead to violations of Premier League PSR profit and sustainability rules.

He told BBC: "Even if we miss the Champions League, Manchester United can easily spend £150 million. To lay off employees, Sir Jim Ratcliff exaggerated the negative nature of Manchester United's finances. They make more money every day than any other club in the Premier League. The clubs are not as much as the outside world claims, and they are in a much better situation than everyone thinks because many people misread the company's financial reports."

Keillon Maguire explained: "Everyone is paying attention to the company in New York - Manchester United, but there is another company called Red Football, owned by the Glazer family and forms the basis of PSR calculations. Red Football Ltd's losses are much lower than Manchester United's Co., Ltd., so the degree of losses of Manchester United clubs is much lower than initially expected. "

Moreover, the calculation of transfer fees at the accounting level is different from that of ordinary people's algorithms. "When you introduce a new player, you usually sign a four or five-year contract. The accounting method is to divide the cost of the player by the contract term. If you sign a player for 150 million pounds and sign for five years, the expenses calculated in PSR are 30 million pounds, plus his salary." Financial expert Maguire said, "Manchester United only needs to sell a few youth training players, such as Garnacho and Rashford, to get a net profit of 60 million pounds, so it is easy to solve. The transfer fee received by the seller can bring several times the amount of funds to the signing."

However, after introducing Mbemo, Ruben Amorin will still face a challenge on the front line next season. As a Cameroon international, Mbemo will compete in the African Cup of Nations at the end of December. The African Cup will start in Morocco on December 21 and last until January 18. Cameroon has qualified for the competition and will face Gabon, Côte d'Ivoire and Mozambique in the group stage. If he advances all the way and reaches the final, he will miss the club for up to 10 games.

The schedule for the new Premier League season has not been announced yet, but according to the situation this season, Manchester United played three games between Christmas and New Year, that is, the African Cup group stage. Even if Cameroon is out of the group, Mbemo will miss these games!

African Cup of Nations was originally scheduled to be held this summer, but due to the expansion of the Club World Cup, FIFA asked the African Football Association to postpone the competition to winter. The African Cup is an international A-level event. If Mbemo is selected for the national team, Manchester United will not be able to stop him from participating. What is even more troublesome for Manchester United is that Mbemo's right-hand replacement, Amad Diallo, will also be unable to play because he may represent Côte d'Ivoire in the African Cup of Nations. Of course, there is also goalkeeper Andre Onana in the Red Devils, who is also an African player, and he is Mbemo's Cameroon teammate.
