Kaoru Mitoma
28-Year-Old
Brighton & Hove Albion
Premier
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Mitoma's third season in Brighton saw him set a bevy of new bests, including 10 goals and 2,608 league minutes played. Even with the bevy of options in the squad, Mitoma seems to have a set role on the left wing to himself, at least when fully fit. Assuming that's the case again, 15 goal contributions are in play, if not more. As always with Mitoma, though, those are likely to come in bursts with plenty of dry spells such as his nearly two-month period without a goal contribution in the middle of last season.
Records assist
Mitoma assisted once to go with two shots (one on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and three chances created in Sunday's 2-1 victory over Manchester City.
ANALYSIS
Mitoma was on the field for the full 90 Sunday and came up with a crucial through ball late in the contest, finding Brajan Gruda in the 89th minute for the game-winner. This was his first goal contribution of the season, coming after 263 minutes of play. That said, he is still in search of his first goal, taking four shots this season.
