Liam Rosenior has begun training with Brighton U23s.
The 33-year-old utility player was released by the Seagulls at the end of last season after injuries and increased competition limited him to 51 appearances in three years.
Rosenior told The Argus: "I am so grateful to the manager (Chris Hughton), Simon Rusk (under-23s coach) and academy manager (John Morling).
"It shows what a classy club Brighton are."
Rosenior occasionally helped out with the under-23s last season as part of his studies for his coaching qualifications.
