Mbeumo’s Key Role Against Wolves
With Wolves struggling at the bottom of the Premier League table, having accumulated just two points from 14 matches, Amorim looks to Bryan Mbeumo as a vital player for the upcoming clash. Despite Amorim’s poor record against Wolves, Mbeumo’s history gives fans hope for a productive performance.

Mbeumo’s Transition to Manchester United
