Brighton head coach Fabian Hurzeler agrees a new long-term contract with the club, extending his stay through 2029. Multiple outlets report that the deal is effectively a three-year extension, with Hurzeler’s prior contract set to expire in 2027. BBC Sport and Sky Sports describe Hurzeler as excited about the future after signing the agreement, framing it as an opportunity to build on work already done at the club. Free Malaysia Today also notes his progress, including a Premier League finish reported as eighth and Brighton being close to European qualification.
The Athletic reports Brighton’s decision as a show of commitment to Hurzeler and says the new contract provides “clarity” amid ongoing club-wide discussions. The reports present a consistent account that Hurzeler remains in charge at Brighton for the coming seasons, though they do not provide details on financial terms or specific targets for the next transfer window.
