Bryan Mbeumo

Bryan Mbeumo 2025-2026

Mbeumo is a versatile forward who primarily operates as a right winger in a front three, often cutting inside onto his stronger left foot. 

In systems using a 3–4–2–1 formation, he typically plays as an inside forward in the right half-space, where he can exploit defensive gaps, link up with teammates, and pose a threat on goal.

Known for his pace, direct dribbling, and movement off the ball, Mbeumo excels in quick attacking transitions.
