Every summer for the last four or five years there has been speculation about a hypothetical departure from Mohamed Salah of Liverpoolalthough this one ultimately stuck despite the many and delicious offers received at Anfield. It is not known what will happen in June but what is certain is that it will be difficult to find a replacement for the Egyptian striker.
However, there are those who believe that there is a footballer who would be the perfect replacement for him. According to former Irish international and now a columnist in English ‘The Times’, Tony Cascarino, the player in question is the 9th of Brentford Bryan Mbeumo. The 25-year-old Cameroonian, who is in his sixth season with the Premier League side, has five goals in six games this campaign.
“I want to see Bryan Mbeumo at Liverpool,” Cascarino wrote in ‘The Times’. “I went to see Brentford on Saturday because I wanted to answer the question: how much will they miss Ivan Toney? But at the end of the game a more pressing question arose: how long can they keep Mbeumo?” “Brentford manager Thomas Frank thinks so too because after the game he said he hopes Mbeumo leaves for a bigger club in June and I think he can play for a Champions League team.”
Cascarino added: “If Mohamed Salah is in his last year (or two) at Liverpool, I think Mbeumo should be number 1 on the list of possible replacements. There are many things I like about his game, but one of the things What attracts me the most is the fact that he makes the players around him better.”
