Brighton had a great season, and the club will play on the European stage for the first time in its history. They finished the season in 6th place, which will also mean playing in the Europa League from next year. There are many good players in the club, but this season two names stand out: Alexis Mac Allister and Moises Caicedo.

The manager of this club, Roberto de Zerbi, definitely confirmed after the last round that the two will leave Brighton "I think that can be the last game of Alexis and Moises, I'm really sorry."- De Zerbi said, as quoted by eurosport.com Roberto de Zerbi emphasized that both of them can play in big European teams.

There are many clubs that are associated with them, but Manchester United and Chelsea stand out in particular. "We are ready. We have to find others big players to play without Alexis and Moises. The policy of Brighton is like this.

I think it's right they can leave, can change teams and play in a level higher. If you ask me about Caicedo and Mac Allister, I love them and they are two big, big players and can be in a big, big European team. They can play in every competition and are ready to compete for a big team and I hope for them they can play in the best team in the world."
However, De Zerbi does not want to be pessimistic and believes that the club can progress despite their departure.

"For Brighton we can still improve [without them] and we can bring in other good players with the transfer market."

De Zerbi on playing on the European stage

De Zerbi hopes to strengthen his team during the summer. Playing on the European stage brings fatigue in the domestic championship.

The Italian hopes to expand his team and add freshness. The next season could be much more difficult for them, but it is certain that they will look forward to playing on the European stage. "Next year we will be playing in four competitions, the Premier League will be tougher for us for sure and we have to be stronger than this year.

At the moment we are not ready to play three games per week, but we are not used to that.
We will have to work in the transfer market and build a stronger squad with more players. The results we achieved were incredible, but we have the dream to improve these results."
