Red Devils’ Newbie Misses Bournemouth Clash…

In a twist wilder than a squirrel on energy drinks, Bryan Mbeumo, the Red Devils’ newcomer, won’t unleash his rocket-like feet against Bournemouth in Chicago’s sizzling Premier League Summer Series showdown. If you’re wondering why, well, blame the fitness fairy—Mbeumo is still revving up his engines after hopping over from Brentford.

Ruben Amorim, United’s mastermind in the comfiest dugout chair, nixed Mbeumo’s appearance like a referee brandishing a red card at a pantomime villain. The lad only just parachuted in for a Stateside adventure, missing the West Ham rumble due to his tardy arrival. But fear not! He’s been promised a starring role against Everton in Atlanta, the duel of the titans taking place on August 3.

Mbeumo, a self-proclaimed challenge junkie, speaks of this Manchester melodrama like a cowboy braving the Wild West. With Old Trafford’s hallowed turf calling his name every fortnight, he’s ready to tango with destiny. Amorim all but whispered sweet strategic nothings into his ear, assuring him that United’s next chapter is one for glory. They both agree, there’s no better stage than the Theatre of Dreams. Yee-haw!
