Bryan Mbeumo was well on his way to Manchester United. Then mentor and Brentford coach Thomas Frank signed with Tottenham, and the London club threw themselves into the race for the powerful right winger with an impressive 20 Premier League goals last season. Now it is reported that Tottenham have withdrawn.
Spurs tried to use Thomas Frank to persuade Mbeumo to turn down United, but now it is claimed that Tottenham realise the battle is lost.
