Seagulls go into transfer frenzy
It was intriguing to hear Fabian Hürzeler’s thoughts on the composition of his squad with so much transfer activity at Brighton in the last few days. Hot on the heels of Georgino Rutter and Brajan Gruda, who could both make their debuts against Manchester United on Saturday, Ferdi Kadioglu and Matt O’Riley are the next two potential arrivals at the Amex Stadium if reports are to be believed. But there is a question mark over whether Billy Gilmour will still be part of the squad amid interest from Antonio Conte’s Napoli, despite Hürzeler’s assurances to the contrary. “There are things I can’t influence,” he said. “If a player doesn’t have the feeling that they can do it here, of course, he has to look for another way. The only thing I can say is the players know how we plan with them, and then it’s up to them.” Ed Aarons
