MU is said to have recruited the “new version” of star Mohamed Salah after the £ 70 million deal. That is rookie Bryan Mbeumo.
In the 2024/25 season, Salah proved his superior level when he led the list of goals and leading the tectonic list, helping Liverpool win the Premier League. The Egyptian star scored 29 goals and had 18 assists, closing a brilliant season.
In contrast, MU experienced a difficult season, but is trying to improve the squad for coach Ruben Amorim. Up to now, they have taken to rookies Matheus Cuha, Bryan Mbeumo and Diego Leon, and approached the agreement to recruit Benjamin Sesko from RB Leipzig and closely monitor Brighton's midfielder Baleba.
Among them, the MBEumo deal from Brentford is most noticeable. The 25 -year -old striker Cameroon scored 20 goals and had 9 assists after 42 matches last season. According to the Daily Mail, analytical data shows that MBEumo is the most stylish and performance player like Mohamed Salah.
The source also rejected the idea that Mbeumo and Cunha were bought just to play as “No. 10” in Amorim's 3-4-2-1 diagram. Instead, MU believes that both are versatile players, which can adapt to many tactical systems.
Talking about MBeumo's debut, coach Amorim commented: “I think he plays well. He needs to better understand the position and moving phase, but his ability to touch the ball first, his one -touch combination has opened a lot of space. Mbeumo has not achieved the best condition, but moves continuously and makes the opponent have to stretch. Everything I expect, he meets.”
MU will start the Premier League campaign 2025/26 next weekend, when welcoming Arsenal at home Old Trafford.
