Manchester United forward Bryan Mbeumo has praised Super Eagles defender Calvin Bassey, describing him as one of the toughest opponents he has faced in his career, Soccernet.ng reports.
Bassey has built a strong reputation in the Premier League as a powerful and reliable centre-back. The Fulham defender is known for his strength, pace and ability to read the game well. These qualities make him extremely difficult for attackers to beat, whether the battle is on the ground or in the air.
During a recent appearance on the Zack Nani show, Mbeumo spoke openly about how difficult it is to play against the Nigerian international.

According to him, Bassey stood out in the matches they played against Fulham because of his physical power and defensive intelligence.
“Calvin Bassey, damn. I think he really stood out in games. Even the two previous games against them, he was solid,” Mbeumo said.
“Yeah, Calvin Bassey is a beast, the guy is a beast. He’s too strong, it’s crazy, and on top of that he’s fast too. It’s not cool to play against him.”
