Bryan Mbeumo has reportedly decided to join Manchester United amid interest from Arsenal. The Brentford star also has Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United pushing to sign him this summer.
As per a report by The Athletic’s David Ornstein, Mbeumo favors a move to Manchester United and is waiting for an agreement between the clubs. The 25-year-old has a year left on his contract, but Premier League clubs are looking to lure him this summer.
Thomas Frank, the Brentford manager, has said there is a possibility of Mbeumo leaving in the summer. He told the media (via Metro):
