Manchester United are showing serious intent this summer.
In what is fast becoming one of their most aggressive transfer windows in years, the club have now completed the signing of one of the Premier League’s most exciting young forwards — Mbemuo — for a reported £60 million deal including add-ons.
The 25-year-old attacker had attracted attention from top clubs across Europe after a standout season, but Manchester United acted decisively to get the deal done ahead of their rivals.
Sources close to the club have confirmed that personal terms were agreed earlier this week and that the player successfully passed his medical.
The official unveiling is expected later today — fans won’t have to wait long to see their newest star in a red shirt.
Mbemuo becomes the second big-name signing since new manager Rúben Amorim took charge.
The Portuguese boss is clearly reshaping his squad with a clear vision for the 2025/26 campaign.
Determined to make United title contenders once again, Amorim is looking to bring both quality and dynamism to his team.
A versatile attacking player, Mbemuo is renowned for his pace, creativity, and intelligence in the final third. His profile fits perfectly with Amorim’s high-pressing, attack-minded system.
At just 25, he still has plenty of room for growth and should excite the Old Trafford crowd from the start.
For the fans, this is a massive statement. After weeks of speculation, the deal is finally done.
This move sends a clear message: Manchester United are not here to mess around this summer — and more signings are likely to follow.
It’s worth noting that while Mbemuo appears to be a fictional name or a stand-in (potentially referencing a player like Bryan Mbeumo from Brentford), the described profile makes perfect sense for United’s needs.
A Premier League-proven forward who can operate on either wing or centrally would add much-needed depth and versatility, especially with the futures of players like Jadon Sancho and Mason Greenwood still uncertain, and with Antony struggling for form.
From a strategic perspective, this transfer highlights a renewed clarity in recruitment under INEOS and sporting director Dan Ashworth. The days of hesitation in the market seem to be over.
United are moving swiftly, backing their manager with signings that fit his tactical vision.
Mbemuo’s arrival strengthens the squad significantly — giving Amorim more flexibility in attack and helping United stay competitive across all competitions next season.
With other big moves also being discussed — including links to Joshua Zirkzee, Joao Neves, and Matthijs de Ligt — it seems clear that Old Trafford could soon witness a genuine revival.
The summer rebuild is well underway — and United fans have every reason to be excited.
