Arsenal Plot Summer Swoop for Brentford Star Bryan Mbeumo

Arsenal are reportedly eyeing a sensational move for Brentford winger Bryan Mbeumo this summer, according to renowned transfer insider Fabrizio Romano.

With Mikel Arteta determined to push for Premier League glory next season, the Gunners are preparing for a big-spending window. Having already secured a deal for midfield maestro Martin Zubimendi, attention is now shifting to bolstering the attack—and Mbeumo has emerged as a key target.

The 24-year-old Cameroonian enjoyed a stellar 2024/25 campaign, racking up an impressive 20 goals and 8 assists in the Premier League. His performances have not gone unnoticed, with top clubs circling. Manchester United and Newcastle United have reportedly opened talks with his representatives—but Arsenal could be ready to make their move.

Mbeumo is valued at around £60 million and is understood to be keen on taking the next step in his career. A switch to the Emirates would represent a significant upgrade and a chance to compete for silverware under Arteta’s ambitious project.

Mbeumo vs Saka – A Tactical Dilemma?

Naturally a right winger, Mbeumo would face stiff competition from Bukayo Saka—Arsenal’s undisputed starter in that role. However, Mbeumo’s versatility could see him adapt to the left flank or even play centrally, giving Arteta additional tactical flexibility.

With Arsenal looking to build squad depth for another title run and Champions League push, adding a proven Premier League attacker like Mbeumo could be a game-changing move.
