Man Utd Delays Bryan Mbeumo Debut Over Fitness Ahead of Arsenal Opener

Bryan Mbeumo, Manchester United's recent £71 million signing from Brentford, has yet to make his club debut due to lagging behind in pre-season fitness. United's head coach Ruben Amorim confirmed that Mbeumo missed the opening US tour match against West Ham and will also sit out the next game versus Bournemouth as he focuses on regaining match fitness. Amorim expressed hope that Mbeumo will be ready to feature in the final US tour match against Everton and emphasized the importance of preparing players for the tactical complexities of modern football. Other players like Joshua Zirkzee and Noussair Mazraoui are also recovering from minor issues but are expected to return soon. Mbeumo's late integration contrasts with other signings who joined earlier and have had more time to adapt to the team. Despite the delayed start, Amorim remains optimistic about Mbeumo's readiness ahead of the Premier League season opener against Arsenal.
