However, the brilliant news for Mbeumo is that his preferred No. 19 is indeed available at Old Trafford. Last worn by Raphaël Varane for the Red Devils and previously donned by the likes of Amad Diallo, Rashford, Danny Welbeck and Dwight Yorke, it seems likely to be the shirt he takes once his signing is confirmed.

Manchester United have finally ended their protracted chase for Bryan Mbeumo after agreeing a deal with Brentford for the Cameroon forward worth up to £71 million.

Mbeumo is expected to undergo a medical this weekend before officially becoming a United player. Cunha, who arrived from Wolves earlier this summer, will be delighted that Mbeumo will be joining him at Old Trafford.
