Locadia enjoying preseason under Brighton boss Potter

Jurgen Locadia has enjoyed his preseason under new Brighton manager Graham Potter.

The striker set up Glenn Murray for the opener and then scored himself during Saturday's 4-0 win over Birmingham City.

He said, “I feel good and the team are playing well. I played in a new role behind Glenn Murray against Birmingham, and it allows me to run into the channels more and use my long-distance shooting.

“That gave me more space and more freedom to move, and I think it suits me better.

“In the system we played on Saturday, I definitely prefer playing behind the striker."
