However, Frank's ability to offer Mbeumo the opportunity to play in the Champions League, following Tottenham's Europa League win last season, may not be enough to convince Mbeumo to join the North London side. Manchester United is reportedly confident that Mbeumo only wants to join them, despite the chance to reunite with Frank at Tottenham.
Speaking recently in Monaco, Mbeumo expressed his gratitude towards Frank, praising his former manager for trusting and developing him as a player and a person. Mbeumo believes Frank is a highly intelligent and capable manager who will adapt well to his new role at Tottenham.
Mbeumo's impressive goal-scoring record, with 20 goals in 38 Premier League appearances for Brentford last season, would be a significant addition to Manchester United's attack. The 25-year-old's signing, combined with the potential arrival of Matheus Cunha, could help transform United's attack under new manager Ruben Amorim, who is looking to overhaul the team's performance.
United's goal tally of 44 in the Premier League last season was the second lowest among non-relegated teams, and Mbeumo's arrival could make a significant difference as the team aims to secure European football.
