BREAKING: ROBERTO DE ZERBI TO LEAVE BRIGHTON AFTER MANCHESTER UNITED MATCH
The Italian joined Albion in September 2022 after Graham Potter left for Chelsea and enjoyed immediate success, taking the club to their highest-ever top-flight finish of sixth.
That secured a campaign in this season’s Europa League and saw De Zerbi linked with a number of high-profile jobs.
Brighton and De Zerbi made the last 16 of the Europa League, while they sit 10th in the Premier League with a game to go.
“I am very sad to be leaving Brighton, but I am very proud of what my players and staff have achieved with the support of everyone at the club and our amazing fans in the past two historical seasons,” De Zerbi said in a statement.
“We have agreed to end my time at Brighton so that the club and I can continue to work in the way that suits each of us best, following our own ideas and visions, as well as our work and human values.
“I have really enjoyed an intense and challenging two years working in the Premier League, not least competing in four major competitions this season. Leaving now provides me with time to take a break before deciding on my future plans.”
