Former Legendary Liverpool star John Barnes is known for his blunt analyses and remarks on the current international teams and players. Recently, he has also come up with some hard and fast-lined suggestions for the star young left winger Kaoru Mitoma while suggesting the latter about his future prospects and moving on to the next club or not.

Barnes warned Mitoma about moving on from Brighton & Hove Albion for the renowned England club Manchester United.

Notably, the 25-year-old star left winger is having a good season with the Seagulls during the ongoing edition of the Premier League. He has scored six goals alongside four assists in the recent games.

“He is playing for a team in the top six in the country. I don’t know if there’s a higher level than that because he’s playing for a team that can qualify for Europe. Playing at Manchester United isn’t a higher level than playing at Brighton,” said Barnes.

“What he needs to do, obviously, is find a team that plays football that suits him. Because he goes to a team that doesn’t suit him doesn’t mean he’s a bad player, it just means that the football doesn’t suit him. And that’s not a question of a higher or lower level,” he added later.

Later on, he also talked about the caliber of Mitoma and his performances in recent performances.

“He has to see the kind of player he is and the team that he wants to go to and do they play the type of football that maximizes his potential. And if it doesn’t then he shouldn’t go regardless of the club,” he concluded.

“If you look at Yves Bissouma, he’s not even in the Tottenham team. So it doesn’t matter how good you are, you have to go to a team that’s gonna suit the way you play,” stated Barnes.
