Reports yesterday claimed that the Bees had 'slashed' their asking price for the Frenchman, and would be willing to accept £15 million, rather than a more substantial fee in excess of £20 million.

However, West London Sport – a news outlet close to the club – have now claimed that Brentford have received no offers for the 22-year-old sensation, and that suggestions of a 'cut price deal' were wide of the mark.

Of course, just because their hasn't been any offers made, it doesn't mean that the Blades won't sign the player. Indeed, the Daily Mail today state that United have submitted a £16.5 million enquiry for Maupay, suggesting that a deal is still very much on the cards.

Furthermore, Brentford snapped up Sweden defender Pontus Jansson in a move worth over £5 million on Monday evening, taking their summer spending to almost £15 million, which suggests they could be blowing the 'Maupay millions' ahead of a sale.
