Manchester United have confirmed the shirt number that has been allocated to summer signing Bryan Mbeumo. The Cameroon international joins Man United from fellow Premier League outfit Brentford for an initial £65million fee, with a further £6m in add-ons, meaning the deal could end up being worth £71m.

Why Manchester United agreed to pay a premium for Mbeumo, how the negotiations played out and how they hope he will prove money well spent

Jason Wilcox has labelled Bryan Mbeumo the “perfect fit” after the Brentford forward completed his £65million move to Manchester United. United’s director of football went on to say Mbeumo, who Ruben Amorim ’s side opened negotiations for in June, was a primary target for the club.
