Pascal Gross and Danny Welbeck close to new Brighton deals - Potter

Brighton's out-of-contract pair Pascal Gross and Danny Welbeck are on the verge of agreeing extensions.

Manager Graham Potter believes former Manchester United, Arsenal and England forward Welbeck is capable of returning to his prime.

“He's got some years left in him, absolutely – that's the key," Potter said of the 31-year-old.

“He's enjoying his football, he's injury-free. You look at his career where he's played and I think he can get back to that level – he's not far away from it now, to be honest.

“He gives us a slightly different option and he's going to be really important for us, so delighted we can keep working together."
