Unfortunately, Bryan Mbeumo had to pull out of Cameroon's squad due to a minor injury. However, Brentford's manager, Thomas Frank, is optimistic that both Mbeumo and Yoane Wissa will be fit and ready for their upcoming Premier League game against Everton this Saturday. Mbeumo had to be substituted during Brentford's last match against Bournemouth, and as a result, he was not included in Cameroon's squad for the international break. Similarly, Wissa also faced an injury concern and had to withdraw from DR Congo's squad last week.
Despite these minor setbacks, Frank is confident that both of his star forwards will be available for the game against Everton. During a press conference on Thursday, Frank stated, "I expect all of them to be ready and available for Saturday. The situations with Mbeumo, Wissa, and Pinnock are all different, and they are not serious injuries. It was similar to the last international break when Damsgaard and Norgaard were called up for Denmark but didn't travel. However, they were able to recover and play in the next game. Sometimes a week of rest can make all the difference, so we are grateful for the cooperation of their national teams."
It's worth noting that Wissa has been in excellent form this season, scoring seven goals in the Premier League so far. Frank also reassured the fans that there are no concerns over Mbeumo's mindset, despite speculation linking him to Liverpool and Newcastle United in the upcoming transfer window. Frank stated, "I'm not thinking about it; it's too far away. I am happy when players attract interest from other clubs because it shows that they are performing well, and that's good for us. I also know that our players are happy to be here at Brentford, especially Bryan. Right now, our focus is on doing our best to beat Everton on Saturday. I know Bryan very well; he has been with us for six seasons, and he is a true professional. He comes to training every day with a big smile on his face, and his energy is infectious. He's been training well, and I have no complaints about his attitude."
