​Skipper Bruno announces Brighton retirement

Brighton skipper Bruno will retire from playing after Sunday's final match of the season at home to Manchester City.

The 38 year old Spanish full-back joined Brighton from Valencia in 2012 and has made 234 appearances for the club, and they hope he will be involved with the club in a "non-playing capacity".

"He has been instrumental in our progress as a football club," said Brighton boss Chris Hughton.

"He's been an outstanding player, an outstanding professional and is an outstanding person."
