Brighton & Hove Albion have secured the future of their project by agreeing a new long-term contract with head coach Fabian Hürzeler. The new deal will add three more years to his current contract. This confirms the 33-year-old as a key part of the club’s plans going forward. Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano shared the update on his official X handle.
Fabrizio Romano reported:
Fabian Hürzeler has signed a new contract at Brighton to stay as head coach for long term project.
Agreement sealed and terms in place, as Hürzeler was never close to Bayer 04 job and focused on #BHAFC plans.
Official statement next, as @plettigoal @skysportde report.
This decision is a big boost for the club, especially after a difficult period on the pitch. Brighton are looking to recover after losing 3–1 to Newcastle United in their last match. The new contract shows that the club still believes in the manager and wants stability as the season comes to an end.
While Brighton focus on building for the future, other teams in the Premier League are also making headlines. Manchester City have seen strong performances from Rayan Cherki, who has reached 11 assists in his first season. This shows the level of competition Hürzeler must face.
For Brighton, the main goal is steady growth. The club wants to keep developing young players and continue with a clear plan under a stable coach. Softfootball understands that once the deal is officially announced, Hürzeler will have a bigger role in deciding new signings for next season.
The official statement is expected soon. This move shows that Brighton are ready to continue building for long-term success.
