Thanks, WR, for posting the link to this article. Very informative! I found the following very interesting: "That track record of being able to nurture young talent in different ways plays a big part in why a number of players agree to come to Brighton." For (Mike) Cave (Brighton's Sporting Director), "arguably the most critical part" is integrating players into the city and the culture of English life. "We can have all the data, all the character backgrounds, context and information that's available," Cave added. "But ultimately when that individual and their family arrives in Brighton, how we onboard them, how we embed them, how we make them feel like it's their home all contributes to them being the best version of themselves on the football pitch. "We want players to come to Brighton and thrive and enjoy the city, enjoy the football club." |  |
