Brighton boss Potter explains letting Andone leave for Galatasaray

Brighton manager Graham Potter is happy with his attacking options after Florin Andone's departure to Galatasaray.

The Seagulls also shipped out Jurgen Locadia to Hoffenheim this month.

Potter said: "We are comfortable with our attacking options in terms of the players already here, those we've recruited, and on the back of the progress made by both Aaron Connolly and Steven Alzate.

"Both players have earned their opportunity, and are demonstrating their capability at this level. Aaron is a good addition to our goalscoring options alongside Glenn Murray and Neal Maupay.

"Steven also provides an extra attacking option from wide positions, playing just off a striker and in midfield — alongside the likes of Leandro Trossard, Pascal Gross, Solly March, Alireza Jakhanbaksh, and Yves Bissouma and Jose Izqueirdo once they are both back to full fitness."
