'Setback' - Another Brighton injury blow confirmed ahead of Manchester United

Brighton could turn to Charalampos Kostoulas or Promise David after Stefanos Tzimas suffered a setback and Georginio and Evan Ferguson remained sidelined.

  • Brighton head coach Fabian Hurzeler confirmed on Wednesday that striker Stefanos Tzimas suffered a recovery setback, further delaying the 20-year-old's return from an ACL injury sustained last season.
  • The Seagulls face a lengthy injury list for their Carabao Cup third-round clash at Manchester United, with striker Georginio Rutter and Ireland international Evan Ferguson both sidelined.
  • Despite these absences, Brighton maintains strong momentum with 13 goals in four Premier League matches, as Hurzeler praised his squad's flexibility after Sunday's 5-0 win at Coventry.
  • Manchester United manager Michael Carrick also faces selection challenges for tonight's game at Old Trafford, reporting uncertainty regarding Luke Shaw's availability while Amad Diallo and Matthijs remain unavailable.
  • Several other Brighton players including Kaoru Mitoma, Jack Hinshelwood, and Mats Wieffer are nearing fitness, with most injured squad members expected to return following the upcoming international break.
