Brighton have sacked
manager Chris Hughton after the Seagulls finished 17th in the Premier League.
They won just three of
their last 23 league games and none of their final nine.
Chairman Tony Bloom said
that run “put our status at significant risk”.
Hughton, who joined Albion
in December 2014, led the club to the Premier League for the first time in
2017, and they finished 15th in their first season back in the top flight.
The 60-year-old, who was
contracted until 2021, also took the club to the FA Cup semi-final this season,
where they lost 1-0 to Manchester City.
Bloom said:
“Our run of three wins from
23 Premier League matches put our status at significant risk. It is with that
in mind, and the performances during that period, that I now feel it’s the
right time for a change.
“Undoubtedly, this has been
one of the most difficult decisions I have had to make as chairman of Brighton,
but ultimately one I have made due to how we struggled in the second half of
the season.”
Hughton won 40.93% of his
215 games in charge and was named the Premier League’s manager of the month in
March 2018.
