“Just can’t wait”: Bryan Mbeumo looking forward to career-first at Man United

While Mbeumo has struggled for form over the past few weeks under Carrick, he is still upbeat and relishing the chance to play in the Champions League for the first time in his career.

Mbeumo eager for milestone

Speaking on the latest episode of the Inside Carrington podcast, Mbeumo said, “I just can’t wait. I know it means a lot for the club and for the fans, so I know it’s going to be an unbelievable atmosphere.”

He continued, “I’m feeling really proud of myself, obviously because it’s never been easy for me. [I have] always had to work hard, but I never forgot about what I was wanting.”

“I always believed in myself because I knew I had special abilities as well. I always tried to work hard and I’m really happy for what is coming for me.”

The Cameroonian added, “I always told myself I wanted to be the best player in the world, so playing these kinds of competitions was really high in my head.”

“Even, as you said, [when] I started in lower leagues and lower teams, I always had this target in my mind.”

Mbeumo has netted 10 goals and provided an additional three assists for United in 32 appearances across all competitions this term.
