Brighton boss Roberto de Zerbi says he's working closely with Valentin Barco.

De Zerbi is happy with the January signing's progress.

He told The Argus: “To play his style, to understand physically it is different, the league.

“To play faster, to understand before he receives the ball what is the next pass, what is the solution he has to take.

“And then, in terms of behaviour, he is top."
