Brighton have just confirmed the departure of their coach Roberto De Zerbi. Vincent Kompany is one of the profiles cited to replace him.

The news was made official in the afternoon: tomorrow, Roberto De Zerbi will lead his last match on the Brighton bench against Manchester United. The Seagulls have announced the end of the collaboration with the man who brilliantly took over from Graham Potter.

In 88 matches in Sussex, De Zerbi won over observers with the play he advocated, particularly daring in his way of attracting the opposing pressure to better get around it.

Tenth this season, Brighton had climbed to sixth place a year ago. Another feather in the cap of the Italian coach, already appreciated for his work at Shakhtar Donetsk and Sassuolo.

A legacy that the club now seeks to perpetuate. According to Sacha Tavolieri, Vincent Kompany is one of the profiles on Brighton’s list to succeed De Zerbi. Vince The Prince’s philosophy could ensure some continuity.

But nothing is done: until now, Kompany has always claimed that relegation would not change anything in his future at Burnley and that he was preparing for next season with the Clarets. For its part, Brighton is obviously thinking of other coaches. Russell Martin (Southampton) and Kieran McKenna (Ipswich) are also mentioned.
