Mbeumo has already agreed personal terms for a contract until 2030 with the option of another year until 2031.
Schira’s claims follow on from reports elsewhere this week that Man Utd have made a big move for Mbeumo.
Man Utd pursue Mbeumo
David Ornstein reports on Tuesday that Mbeumo wants to join Man Utd, who will now open talks with Brentford.
As Mbeumo only has a year left on his contract, Brentford are not expected to stand in his way of joining Man Utd, despite the option to extend his deal by another year.
Mbeumo enjoyed a superb 2024-25 season, scoring 20 goals and providing eight assists.
Ornstein says there is also interest from Arsenal, Newcastle and Tottenham, but that Mbeumo wants Man Utd.
Ruben Amorim plans to play Mbeumo behind a striker, but he can also feature out wide and as a centre-forward.
Man Utd have already confirmed the signing of Matheus Cunha for a whopping €74 million, with the Brazilian expected to occupy one of the two No.10 positions in Ruben Amorim's side.
Although Man Utd are ready to bid €60m, Ben Jacobs says that Brentford are demanding a fee in excess of that amount.
The expert's opinion on Bryan Mbeumo to Man Utd
Premier League expert Cameron Smith says: “Mbeumo enjoyed the best season of his career in 2024-25, notching 20 goals and seven assists in 38 Premier League games.
“His tally of 9.3 expected assists was the highest of any player in the entire English top flight and, alongside Matheus Cunha, he will provide Man Utd with the attacking dynamism they have sorely missed in recent years.
“Furthermore, Mbeumo’s relationship with Amad Diallo - who is likely to be deployed as a right wing-back next term - could blossom into one of the best in Europe.”
