According to Italian transfer expert Fabricio Romano, 25-year-old Mbemo had completed the main steps in the transfer process on Saturday and underwent a medical examination from Manchester United. He will sign with the Red Devils until 2030, plus one-year priority renewal. It is said that Manchester United took the initiative to propose the terms of the one-year contract renewal. Mbemo, with a transfer fee of £71 million, became the third highest price in African players in history, second only to Osmaine and Nicholas Pepe, who had £72 million. It is reported that during the personal contract negotiations, Mbemo confirmed to have obtained the Manchester United No. 19 jersey, just like his six years at Brentford. It is reported that Mbemo wants to wear an ordinary number without having to bear the unnecessary expectations.

Amorin hopes that the new players can be confirmed before the US trip, but he may have to accept the reality that only Cunya and Mbemo have completed it in time. The British Daily Mirror said that Amorin's patience was gradually exhausted due to the slow signing of Manchester United.

He originally hoped that Manchester United would sign a new center at this moment, but it took the club 6 weeks to complete the introduction of Mbemo. Although he understood that Sir Jim Ratcliff and Ineos would not want to pay "Manchester United tax" again, they ended up spending £71 million and delayed the center's signings.

Amorin knew that he needed to get new players and integrate the team as soon as possible to have the chance to get Manchester United back on track. And now he feels like he is tied up with a hand. The new Premier League season has started less than a month, and there is no obvious candidate for the introduction of new centers.

British media revealed that Manchester United and Newcastle United have contacted Paris Saint-Germain's French striker Randal Colo Muani. The Red Devils have missed Liam Drapp, Dzekelish and Osmain this summer, and Ekitic is said to have chosen Liverpool as well. France's "FootMercato" report revealed that the Red Devils are now starting to contact Paris Saint-Germain and may seek to buy Muani.

26-year-old Muani was rented to Juventus last season, scoring 10 goals in 22 games, including 2 goals in the Club World Cup, but the "Old Woman" signed Jonathan David for free, and there are questions about whether she would still buy Muani. Paris Saint-Germain signed Muani from Frankfurt two years ago, spending 75 million euros transfer fees plus 15 million euros floating terms. Now they only need €40 million (£35 million) to sell him.

Muani himself once said that he had dreamed of playing football in the Premier League one day. "To be honest, who doesn't want to play in the Premier League? It's one of the best leagues in the world. You'll have different dreams, these are childhood dreams. But I'm not looking for the perfect club or the best club in the world. What I'm really looking for is the club that gives me the opportunity to show myself, win game time, and most importantly, let me grow up."

Other center players at Manchester United include Aston Villa's Watkins, Chelsea's Jacquesson and Red Bull Leipzig's Benjamin Scheshko, but they're all more expensive than Muani. Manchester United needs to sell players to raise funds to introduce new centers, but Rashford is free to rent Barcelona and the club does not get any income, which may affect buyers.

Romano disclosed that Manchester United has determined that the next step is to buy center and goalkeeper, with the scorer being the priority. However, the Red Devils' introduction of Jacquesson from Chelsea is considered impossible. "Manchester United already knows about Jacquesson, and Chelsea is not in a hurry to sell him, unless they get a very high offer to let him go. At present, they have not started a real conversation, and any negotiations are in the early stages. They still need to decide internally which forward to introduce, and then the goalkeeper."
