The 12 players that could leave Brighton this summer as contract status of squad assessed

Danny Welbeck scored six goals for Albion last season and has been offered a new deal

One of the main challenges Brighton head coach Graham Potter faced last season was trying to keep a large first team squad happy.

It was confirmed this week that Jose Izquierdo will depart when his contract expires at the end of the month and Albion will be keen to reduce numbers further this summer.

Key decisions need to be made on players who are constantly on the fringes of the starting XI and those who spent large parts of last season on loan.

We take a look at the main Brighton players who could be on the move this transfer window.

Shane Duffy

Contracted with Brighton until June 2023. The Ireland international said he needs a ‘reset’ after a tough time north of the border while on loan with Celtic. The 29-year-old will likely move on this summer with Chris Hughton’s Nottingham Forest or Wayne Rooney’s Derby said to be possible destinations.

Jayson Molumby

Brighton contract expires June 2023. The Ireland international midfielder did not enjoyed enough game time at Preston following his January loan switch. Albion are well stacked in central midfield and will have to make a big decision on Molumby, 21, this summer. Molumby, who enjoyed a successful loan at Millwall the previous season, will be keen to play regular football be that on another loan or a permanent move away from the Amex.

Davy Propper

Brighton contract expires June 2023. The Dutch international hardly featured last season due to injury and illness. A classy operator at his best but faces stiff competition in central midfield from Yves Bissouma, Adam Lallana, Pascal Gross and now Jakub Moder and Caicedo. Would like to see him stay and get back to his best but the 29-year-old may favour a move to back to Holland with PSV said to be keen.
