Manchester United must back manager Ruben Amorim in the transfer market to improve the squad.
Amorim has brought a fresh style of play that contrasts sharply with the approaches of his predecessors.
The transition to a 3-4-2-1 formation has been challenging, and the Red Devils must sign players who thrive in this set-up.
United must make a bold move to sign Brentford star Bryan Mbeumo. The 25-year-old is a proven Premier League player who has excelled in his attacking role at Brentford.
He is in sublime form, bagging 13 goals and three assists in 20 league outings this term.
Amorim prefers a left-footed attacker in the right number ten spot, and Mbeumo looks to be a perfect fit for the role.
He would add creativity and fluid link-up play, while his pace and tenacity would allow him to thrive in the channels.
With a high work rate and a relentless pressing style, Mbeumo would be a constant threat, perfectly aligning with Amorim’s high-intensity philosophy.
United lack hard-working attackers in the squad. There are huge question marks over the futures of Marcus Rashford and Antony.
While Alejandro Garnacho certainly has potential, his inability to stand strong in duels remains a weakness.
Mbeumo is averaging 4.4 ball recoveries per game this season, more than Amad Diallo (four).
His arrival will allow Amorim to field Diallo in the right wing-back position where he previously flourished.
Described as ‘brilliant‘ by journalist Samuel Luckhurst, Mbeumo’s current deal expires in 2026.
If the £42 million-rated ace declines to extend his deal, Brentford may decide to cash in on him.
Mbeumo is entering the prime of his career, and he would be an excellent signing for United.
