Following an impressive competitive debut in a narrow defeat to Arsenal, he took a corner at Fulham that was headed by Yoro, only for it to deflect off Rodrigo Muniz and be recorded as an own goal, denying Mbeumo the assist.
He netted his first goal for the club during the ultimately unsuccessful comeback against Grimsby Town in the Carabao Cup, showcasing a splendid solo effort in the 2-2 draw.
While it was his second penalty that concluded the extended shootout—hitting the underside of the bar—this didn’t overshadow the significant impact he made in his early days as a Red.
