Brighton attacker Ayari: I developed a lot under De Zerbi

Brighton attacker Yasin Ayari is happy with his loan move to Coventry City.

The young Swede joined Brighton from AIK in January before his Sky Blues loan switch last month.

On spending preseason under Brighton manager Roberto de Zerbi, he said: "It was very instructive. A great coach with great ideas when it comes to tactics. It is only positive to see. He is a really nice person and a good coach. Even though I didn't play that much, I feel that just through training I developed a lot."

On his loan with Coventry, Ayari told Fotbollskanalen: "You shouldn't take it for granted, but you should work for your place, your own career. Just because they are known for selling young people, you shouldn't just believe it will happen, but you have to work hard.

"You have to earn that place, you have to earn that move - if there is one. It's a good club. They work with young people and sell young people, so in that way I am very happy to be there."
