Graham Potter will miss Brighton's trip to Leicester on Sunday after testing positive for coronavirus... with assistant Billy Reid set to take charge of visitors at the King Power Stadium

Brighton boss Graham Potter has tested positive for coronavirus and will miss his side's Premier League game at Leicester.

Potter's assistant Billy Reid took Albion's pre-match press conference on Friday and will take charge of the team at the King Power Stadium on Sunday.

The 58-year-old was a manager in his own right for eight years at Hamilton before linking up with Potter at Swedish club Ostersund in 2013, and has worked with him ever since.

'Graham had a rough night last night and tested positive this morning so he didn't take training,' said Reid.
