Nigerian youngster Zadok Abu Yohanna wore the Brighton colours for the first time as the Seagulls cruised to a convincing 3–0 pre‑season victory over AS Roma on Saturday, 8 August 2026.
The highly‑rated wonderkid, who joined Brighton on June 6, 2026, with the transfer officially finalized when the window opened on June 15, 2026, came off the bench in the 60th minute and immediately showed glimpses of the quality he can bring to the team.
Softfootball observed Yohanna displaying flashes of brilliance, quick feet, sleek movements, and plenty of confidence on the ball, exciting the home fans and giving them a glimpse of what they could be seeing throughout the season.
Although he did not get on the scoresheet, his lively performance and positive impact stood out as Brighton comfortably saw out the win.
