The club is apparently skarrelling to get the Cameroon star a visa to join them on their trip to the US, where they’ll face Arsenal on Saturday.
One bra who will definitely be in the pakkie for the trip to USA is Cape legend Benni McCarthy.
After taking an extra lang vakansie, Mcarthy joined his span in his “hometown” of Edinburgh on Tuesday as they geared up to face Lyon on Wednesday.
Back to the present and while it’s still only pre-season, United legend Andy Cole is excited to see the manne in action.
Cole says: “I think it’s really good that you have the opportunity to play these guys early doors, because at some stage in Europe you might come across teams like Lyon.”
