REVEALED: Roberto De Zerbi's explosive clash with Alexis Mac Allister and Guardiola's shocking advice ahead of Brighton's stunning Premier League debut

Brighton boss Roberto De Zerbi has revealed the inner workings of his coaching philosophy that led to Brighton's 6th place finish in 2022-23 - their most successful season.

The seaside club secured a 4-1 victory over Luton Town in their 2023-24 Premier League debut, but De Zerbi has since unveiled the truth behind his clash with World Cup winning Alexis Mac Allister and treble-winning Pep Guardiola's advice.

Despite their success, De Zerbi did not shy away from discussing the challenges that have beset his Brighton side.

Notably, the departure of key players, including the mercurial Alexis Mac Allister, who secured a move to Liverpool after the Argentina World Cup victory.
