admin

Brighton’s medical team will be busy assessing their walking wounded over the international break.

The Seagulls, who are sixth in the Premier League after their 2-1 win against Manchester City last Saturday, have suffered a number of injuries so far this term.

Skipper Lewis Dunk has missed the last four matches with calf issues, while flying winger Yankuba Minteh remains side-lined with a muscular problem.

Turkey international Ferdi Kadioglu is also currently out with a toe injury and missed last weekend’s win against City.

Here’s Brighton’s injury list in full and expected return dates…

Lewis Dunk – calf: The captain sustained the injury in the warm-up to the Wolves match and has not been on the pitch since. Bournemouth away after the international break is a realistic target for Dunk.

Yankuba Minteh – muscular: The Gambian has been out for five matches due to a muscular problem sustained in the previous international break. Hurzeler said last week he’s making good progress and will hope to be available against Bournemouth.

Ferdi Kadioglue – toe: The versatile performer scored his first Premier League goal in the 2-1 loss at Liverpool and then missed the win against City. Reports in Turkish media suggest he could be out for one or months.

Adam Webster – thigh: The defender injured his hamstring against Tottenham and has not been seen since. No return date as yet but the Bournemouth match will likely be too soon.

James Milner – thigh: The experienced midfielder has missed the last 10 matches due to a hamstring injury sustained at Arsenal. Hurzeler previosuly stated he had a setback in his reccvery. It’s unlikely Milner will feature at Bournemouth after the break.

Jack Hinshelwood – knee: The midfielder hobbled off against City with what looked like an injury to his right knee. Hurzeler told Sussex World, that he will have a scan this week to assess the damage.

Solly March – knee: The winger has been out almost 12 months and his return from a knee injury has been put back further. Continues rehab and is unlikely to feature at Bournemouth.
