Southampton target March to miss rest of season for Brighton

Brighton & Hove Albion winger Solly March has been ruled out for the remainder of the season due to anterior cruciate ligament damage.

The 21-year-old, who is a target of Premier League club Southampton, suffered the injury in the 2-2 draw with Derby County on Tuesday.

"We're all devastated about it," Brighton manager Chris Hughton told BBC Sussex.

"He's a young player and has been in really good form for us. How long he'll be out won't be determined until he sees a specialist. It's a real blow."
