Brentford's Frank Onyeka tells fan he wants to join Manchester United

The Nigerian international was filmed discussing a potential transfer to Manchester United.


Brentford midfielder Frank Onyeka was filmed telling a fan that he would like to play for Manchester United. A potential transfer would reunite the 28-year-old with former teammate Bryan Mbeumo, who joined United from Brentford in the summer. Onyeka, whose contract expires in June 2027, could be the next player sold for a significant profit by his club.

While Manchester United are known to be looking for midfield recruits, it is uncertain if they will attempt to sign the Nigerian international, as they are also reportedly following the development of players such as Alex Scott, Carlos Baleba, and Elliot Anderson. Onyeka joined Brentford in July 2021 and has 40 caps and 3 goals for Nigeria. In the 2025/2026 Premier League season, he has made 6 appearances and provided 1 assist. Transfermarkt estimates his market value at €7.00m.
