Lewis Dunk aim to play out career with Brighton

Lewis Dunk wants to play out his career with Brighton.

The Seagulls captain is drawing inspiration from retired West Ham midfielder Mark Noble.

He told the club's website: "Hopefully, yes. I'm at my home town club, I'm enjoying my football under this manager and enjoy having my friends and family around me so I'm happy here and I want to try to stick to this club and retire here.

"Hopefully I can do that.

"I spoke to Mark after the game and said 'Congratulations on an unbelievable career and all the best on retirement' and I'd spoken to him a few times during lockdown. He helped me as a new captain dealing with things so I had a few good chats with him during that time. Obviously he has had an incredible career and he is a great guy as well to go along with that."
