Newcastle United, Arsenal and Manchester United are among the Premier League clubs keen on Brentford star Bryan Mbeumo.
The Magpies, the Gunners and the Red Devils are all likely to bolster their ranks in the summer transfer window.
Newcastle will be eager to kick on after their Carabao Cup win, Arsenal will want more strength in depth, and Manchester United are still rebuilding under Ruben Amorim.
Meanwhile, Brentford’s Mbeumo has made a name for himself as one of the best forwards outside of the Premier League’s conventional ‘big six’.
Now, a report has emerged sharing what Newcastle are now ready to do in pursuit of the Cameroon international.
Newcastle ready to meet Brentford’s £50million Bryan Mbeumo valuation
Newcastle are said to have the strongest interest in Mbeumo out of all his Premier League suitors, according to CaughtOffside.
Indeed, the Magpies are reported to be ready and willing to meet Brentford’s £50million valuation for their player.
However, there’s a lot of interest in Mbeumo, with Arsenal remaining keen on him in order to have more rotation options in attack.
Likewise, Man United are looking for forwards in the summer after opting to loan out the likes of Marcus Rashford and Antony.
In addition, Liverpool and Tottenham are said to be interested in Mbeumo, who has registered 15 goals and six assists for the Bees this term.
Liverpool fans think Mbeumo would be an apt Mohamed Salah replacement, while Ange Postecoglou is said to be an admirer of Mbeumo.
What Alan Shearer and Stan Collymore have said about Bryan Mbeumo
Newcastle legend Alan Shearer has already sung Mbeumo’s praises, naming him in his Team of the Week after his brace against Ipswich Town in October.
“Two more goals in another outstanding performance,” said Shearer.
“He kept his cool for the penalty and delivered a delicious cross that ended up being the winner.”
Meanwhile, Collymore said Mbeumo was his “favourite player in the Premier League” and made a solid case why the £50million man would thrive at Liverpool.
“Interestingly, it’s actually one of Toney’s Brentford teammates that I think top sides should be taking a closer look at,” he said. “Bryan Mbeumo – I love him!
“It may surprise some of you but Mbeumo is my favourite player in the Premier League. I think he’s quality.
“Whenever I watch him, he gets the ball close to his feet, he’s very direct.
“He makes excellent runs in the channels, he can drop deep, he holds the ball up really well, he is very supportive of his striking partner, he gets in the box and poaches goals, he’s physically strong.
“I could go on and on. He’s a great player! If Salah does end up leaving Liverpool this summer then I certainly think Jurgen Klopp should consider Brentford’s number 19.”
