De Zerbi to Brighton: A Shocking Twist
De Zerbi to Replace Potter
First Experience in the Premier League
In a surprising turn of events, Roberto De Zerbi has been appointed as the new manager of Brighton & Hove Albion. The Italian coach will take over from Graham Potter, who left the club to join Chelsea last week.
De Zerbi previously managed Sassuolo in Serie A, where he earned praise for his attacking style of play. He has also coached Shakhtar Donetsk in the Ukrainian Premier League.
Brighton chairman Tony Bloom said: "Roberto is a highly talented coach who we believe has the potential to take Brighton to the next level."
De Zerbi said: "I am delighted to join Brighton & Hove Albion. This is a club with a lot of potential and I am excited to work with the players and staff to achieve success."
De Zerbi will take charge of his first game as Brighton manager on Saturday, when the Seagulls host Manchester United at the Amex Stadium.
