For example, in just 17 league games this year, the 25-year-old "machine," as dubbed by football producer Michael Johnston, has scored ten goals and provided two assists, which isn't a million miles off the Englishman's five goals and ten assists in 16 league appearances.

Furthermore, the "unstoppable" Avallon-born dynamo, as dubbed by Premier League legend Alan Shearer, isn't just getting lucky at the moment either, as in just 25 league games last season he racked up a haul of 15 goals and assists for a team that struggled as well.

Lastly, while the exciting goalscorer would be brilliant cover for the next couple of months, he's also good enough to compete with the Gunners' number seven when he's fit again, and he has the positional versatility to challenge whoever's off the left and down the middle to boot.

Ultimately, apart from the likes of Lamine Yamal and Mohamed Salah, there might not be another winger in world football who could replace Saka at this point in time, but Arsenal have to try.

Bryan Mbeumo celebrates for Brentford

Therefore, of all the options possibly open to them next month, signing the free-scoring Mbeumo from Brentford seems like the best.
