Manchester United have finally snapped up Bryan Mbeumo, and his move has been supported by some big-name players.

Manchester United fans can finally stop refreshing for news on Bryan Mbeumo’s transfer from Brentford.

It’s taken a while, far longer than anybody realistically hoped or expected, but Mbeumo has finally been presented as a United player.

Mbeumo has been given the number 19 shirt at Old Trafford and will now head on United’s pre-season tour of the United States.

The Cameroonian forward provides a proven source of Premier League goals and has been signed as a major impact player for Ruben Amorim.

Barcelona and Real Madrid stars react to Bryan Mbeumo’s Manchester United move

Mbeumo wanted to join United early in June, and had to remain patient as Ineos haggled away with Brentford for weeks.

Mbeumo took to Instagram on Tuesday to send a message to United fans, alongside a photo of his contract signing.

’New chapter’ said Mbeumo, who will just be relieved to finally have the deal signed, sealed and delivered.

Mbeumo’s move has caught the attention of players around Europe, with Barcelona’s Jules Kounde sending a message on his Instagram story.

‘Brrrrrrrr!! Let’s go,’ said Kounde, showing his excitement for Mbeumo alongside a fire emoji.

Real Madrid’s Aurelien Tchouameni reposted United’s announcement on his own Instagram story, while AC Milan goalkeeper Mike Maignan posted a photo of Mbeumo being presented as a United player.

Mbeumo’s connection to Jules Kounde, Aurelien Tchouameni and Mike Maignan

Those are some fairly big names, and all three have racked up the caps for the French national team.

The connection between the four players here is that they are all represented by the Excellence Sport Nation agency.

Mbeumo played alongside Kounde with the French Under-21 side, but has never played with Tchouameni or Maignan.

This is merely a case of three players under the same agency showing support for Mbeumo as he makes the biggest move of his career.

Kounde, Tchouameni and Maignan will surely keep tabs on Mbeumo as he starts his United career, and will be cheering him on from afar.
