Bryan Mbeumo has been told Tottenham can offer him one thing Manchester United can't this summer.
The Brentford star looks set to leave the Bees this window - with the Red Devils and Spurs his most likely destinations. However, he has been advised to move to north London by ex-Spurs star Robbie Keane.
In his latest blog for Betway, Keane said: "All eyes will be on the transfer window now.
"When a manager comes in, he always wants to bring his own people in. Whether that's Brentford players or not, I'm not sure, but he certainly knows he can trust his former players.
"Bryan Mbeumo is one who I think could come and fit in well. He’s had good season, scored some goals and got some assists, and now has teams like Man Utd looking at him. I’d expect him to do very well at Spurs."

Mbeumo could follow Frank to Spurs, but keen reckons he won't be their only signing this summer.
He added: "I've also seen Spurs being linked with Jack Grealish in the media. I love Jack. I think he’s a wonderful football player, and he’s a real Tottenham player with the way he plays and moves on the pitch.
"I really think that he could fit into the into the Tottenham team, whether he plays on the left, as a high No. 8 or as a No. 10. I’d definitely be hoping for that move to happen.

"I think Spurs should also prioritise a really solid midfield player who can protect the defence as a No. 6. They need two or three players, and I don’t think there’s any question about that.
"There are talks about Cristian Romero going, so whether he stays or not will decide whether they have to look for another centre-half.
