Manchester United are set to finalise the £71million signing of Bryan Mbeumo within the next 48 hours. After having their third offer accepted by Brentford, Mbeumo is scheduled for a medical this weekend. The forward is anticipated to ink a five-year contract at Old Trafford, earning £150,000 per week.

It had been a dismal campaign, United’s worst finish in the top flight (15th) since they were relegated in the 1973-74 season and without the consolation of a cup win after Amorim’s side were beaten 1-0 by Tottenham Hotspur in the Europa League final.
