Bryan Mbeumo lifts lid on incredible secret talent that will go down a storm on tour

Manchester United forward Bryan Mbeumo has shared fresh insight into his long-standing love of music.

The Cameroon international also conveyed why learning the piano has become one of his favourite ways to unwind away from football.

Speaking in an interview published on the club’s official website, the 26-year-old illustrated music as a constant in his life.

“Music [is] really important to me, because I grew up with it,” he remarked.

The United number 19 traced that connection back to a weekly family routine at home.

“I remember every Sunday my dad would put music on during the cleaning of the house, so every Sunday we’d have it on,” he explained.

The attacker added that his father’s taste still influences him now.

“My dad would play only African music and sometimes I listen to that now,” he mentioned.

The former Brentford man also outlined what he enjoys listening to today, pointing to “French rap”, “Afrobeat[s]” and “piano music.”

The United forward is learning piano almost every day

Mbeumo revealed the moment the piano first inspired him to have a go.

“I had a friend who played piano, and I went to their house one day and she was playing, and I was like: that’s so beautiful. And I wanted to try to learn,” he stated.

The French-born player emphasised the appeal is partly about keeping his mind busy.

“I always like to learn new things in life. It’s relaxing as well, so I really like that,” he observed.

United’s top scorer this season then provided an update on what he is working on at the moment.

“Right now, I’m learning ‘7 Years’ by Lukas Graham and I’m playing almost every day. I’ve just bought a new piano,” he answered.

The United player also named a track he associates with a key moment from his time at Brentford.

“Are there any important songs from my career? ‘Freed From Desire,’” Mbeumo noted, highlighting it “was played when [Brentford] won the play-offs.”
