In the first two rounds of the EPL, Mitoma has consistently contributed with attacking points, spearheading Brighton’s winning streak. In the first round against Everton, he scored the opening goal and continued to drive the attack, leading to a 3-0 victory. He was even named in the EPL’s Best XI for the first round. He followed this up with an assist in the second round against Manchester United, setting up Danny Welbeck’s goal. Brighton secured a 2-1 win, marking their second consecutive victory. Mitoma’s dazzling dribbling skills have garnered attention in the EPL, drawing comparisons to the renowned South Korean forward Son Heung-min.
