Bryan Mbeumo has change into ‘frustrated’ by the delay in his transfer to Manchester United, in keeping with a member of Cameroon’s backroom staff.
United are in advanced talks to sign Mbeumo but have been unable to succeed in an agreement with Brentford, who’re holding out for a £65 million transfer fee.
Mbeumo has also attracted interest from Tottenham, who are actually managed by his former Brentford boss Thomas Frank, however it’s understood that the 25-year-old has agreed personal terms with United.
United have seen multiple offers rejected by Brentford this summer but are confident that a deal will be struck for the forward, who scored 20 goals within the Premier League last season.
Cameroon’s assistant coach, Ashu Cyprian Besong, claims he has spoken to Mbeumo about his potential move to United and says Brentford have been made aware of the player’s desire to affix Ruben Amorim’s side this summer.

‘Yes, obviously he’s very frustrated with how long it’s taken. But he’s an expert and anticipates these items,’ Besong told Telecom Asia.
‘I spoke to him about per week ago and he could be very calm with every little thing that is happening.

‘But in fact, he’s already told them he desires to go to United.
‘He just wanted the 2 clubs to seek out an agreement, as he’s very grateful for the chance that he’s been given by Brentford in his profession.’
Meanwhile, Brentford’s director of football, Phil Giles, refused to rule out the prospect of keeping Mbeumo on the club if United are unable to fulfill their asking price.
‘He had a improbable season,’ Giles told BBC Sport last week.
‘We expected big interest in him, we have now had big interest in him.
‘He has his ideas about where he desires to take his profession. He’s well inside his rights to do this.
‘It just isn’t unimaginable he remains to be a Brentford player next season if we agree he’s going to remain.
‘If it’s not right deal, why would we do it?
‘He’s actually certainly one of our greatest players, if not our greatest player, and we want our greatest players. There’s no harm in keeping your best players.’
