Brighton have brought Bobby Zamora back to the AMEX - this time as the club's ambassador.

Zamora made 162 appearances for the Seagulls across two stints, the most recent of which came in the 2015/16 season.

Brighton chief executive Paul Barber said: "Bobby is a huge part of this club's history, so to have him back involved is just fantastic.

"Another club and football legend, Alan Mullery, has already shown what a hugely valuable and popular role being a club ambassador is and now Bobby's contribution to our club and to the game in general is being recognised.

"You could see when he returned to us in 2015 that Bobby was still a top-quality player and he played a very important part in the progress we've made to become a Premier League club.

"After making such a significant impact on the pitch, we recognise the value of having someone of Bobby's standing still involved with the club. Alongside Alan, Bobby will play an important part in raising our profile, both locally, and to a global audience.

"You only have to look at his recent appearances at the Amex to see how much Bobby's presence lifts the supporters and we are really looking forward to working with him over the next season."
