Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes has made a confident prediction about Bryan Mbeumo’s future after the forward celebrated his debut for the club during the pre-season tour of the US.<\/p>\n

After a long, drawn out negotiation saga between Brentford and United<\/a>, the Reds finally got their man just a day before they flew out to America for the Premier League<\/a> Summer Series. Having not been in training from the beginning of July like his teammates, Mbeumo<\/a> was given a cautious introduction to the first-team.<\/p>\n

Ruben Amorim <\/a>did not select him for the victories over West Ham and Bournemouth but introduced him from the start alongside Matheus Cunha<\/a> up front for the draw against Everton. The 25-year-old was replaced at half-time but will be hopeful that he can play further minutes in the Reds’ final pre-season fixture against Fiorentina on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Despite his limited game time, Mbeumo reflected positively on the tour, posting on Instagram: “US Tour done. Happy to have made my debut with the team.<\/p>\n

“Thanks fans for the massive support.” Among those to reply were his former Brentford teammate Ivan Toney who wrote: “Let\u2019s go my son,” while Diogo Dalot<\/a> replied: “Allezzzz Bryan.”<\/p>\n

However, it was Fernandes<\/a> who made a confident prediction for his new teammate, as he wrote: “First of many.” Exactly how Amorim<\/a> will utilise Mbeumo moving forward remains to be seen.<\/p>\n

The Portuguese head coach could choose to play him alongside another centre-forward up top like Cunha or Rasmus Hojlund, or he may play deeper in one of the No.10 positions instead. We should get a clearer idea of Amorim’s plans Saturday at Old Trafford<\/a>.<\/p>\n
