Brentford is facing competition from Manchester United to sign Idrissa Gueye, a talented young striker from Metz.
Initially, Brentford thought they only had to worry about Southampton, which had been relegated, to secure Gueye's signature.
However, Manchester United has entered the picture and is now in talks to sign the 18-year-old Gueye.
Brentford is willing to meet Metz's asking price of £15 million for Gueye and believes it can convince him to join the team by offering regular senior football opportunities.
On the other hand, Manchester United views Gueye as a long-term project, suggesting that they may not be able to offer him the same level of playing time as Brentford.
Gueye is a senior international player for Senegal, having gained experience at a young age.
Brentford is trying to convince Gueye that joining the team would be a good decision, while Manchester United is also making its case for why he should choose them.
The competition between Brentford and Manchester United for Gueye's signature is ongoing, with both teams trying to persuade him to join their team.
