Assists in season finale
F/MBrighton & Hove Albion
May 27, 2025
Mitoma assisted once to go with three crosses (zero accurate) and one chance created in Sunday's 4-1 win versus Tottenham Hotspur.
ANALYSIS
Mitoma set up Diego Gomez's late goal Sunday, a strike which capped a 4-1 win over Spurs. Mitoma finished the campaign with 14 goal contributions (10 goals and four assists), four of which came in the final five matches of the season. It was another solid season for Mitoma, especially after coming off a major injury that kept him out the latter half of last season. He is set to be a focal point of Brighton's attack once again next season.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Arsenal could move for him
F/MBrighton & Hove Albion
May 26, 2025
Arsenal are intersted in signing Mitoma during the summer, according to Sky Germany.
ANALYSIS
Arsenal are desperate to sign a striker in the summer, but they're also interested in acquiring a left winger to pair with Bukayo Saka on the opposite flank. Mitoma is one of the best players in the Premier League in that position, though signing him won't be easy. Brighton aren't interested in parting ways with him, and Bayern Munich are also keen on acquiring him, so the Gunners might engage in a bidding war for his services.
