Brentford are applying pressure on Manchester United to meet their £60million asking price for Bryan Mbeumo by reportedly entering transfer talks with Tottenham Hotspur. New Spurs head coach Thomas Frank will try to convince Mbeumo to remain in London after striking a fruitful relationship with the 25-year-old over six years at Brentford.

Manchester United remain Bryan Mbeumo’s preferred destination despite the appointment of former Brentford boss Thomas Frank as Tottenham Hotspur manager.

Mbeumo is described as "more than intrigued" about the opportunity the north London club has to offer now that Thomas Frank - his mentor of six years at Brentford - has been confirmed as Spurs' new manager.
