Manchester United have increased their bid for Brentford forward Bryan Mbeumo, sources confirmed to ESPN.
The new offer is worth £65 million ($87m) with another £5 million ($7m) in add-ons. Brentford are yet to inform United whether it will be accepted.
United have prioritised the signing for Mbeumo since completing a deal for Matheus Cunha.
Brentford have made it clear during negotiations that they value Mbeumo above the £62.5m that saw Cunha move to Old Trafford from Wolves.
Mbeumo is younger than Cunha and scored more Premier League goals last season. Interest in the Cameroon international has also been complicated by Brentford receiving a number of enquiries for striker partner Yoane Wissa.

Brentford, according to sources, are reluctant to lose both players in the same transfer window.
United are hopeful of getting a deal over the line for Mbeumo, although they face a race against time to get him on the plane for the preseason tour of the United States.
Ruben Amorim and his squad are set to fly to their base camp in Chicago on Tuesday ahead of three games in the U.S.
