Brighton omits Mitoma and Minteh from Conference League squad
Brighton & Hove Albion has announced its Europa Conference League squad for the group stage, notably omitting wingers Kaoru Mitoma and Yankuba Minteh. Both players are currently working toward full fitness. In their place, the club has registered Nigerian internationals Zadok Yohanna and Femi Azeez.
Regarding Minteh, Brighton manager Fabian Hurzeler suggested the player could potentially fulfill a dream move to Liverpool in a future transfer window, provided he performs well and the team is successful. This follows a summer transfer window in which Liverpool's bids for the Gambian winger—including one worth €70 million—were rejected by Brighton. Minteh is also recovering from hip surgery performed after a pre-season injury.
