Ansu Fati out for 'a long time' — Brighton boss De Zerbi confirms

Fati, on loan from Barcelona, could be out for up to two months after picking up an injury in Brighton's win over Nottingham Forest.

A disappointed De Zerbi gave the update at a press conference on Wednesday.

"Igor (Julio) can play. Ansu (Fati) and (Tariq) Lamptey are both injured,” De Zerbi said.

“We have lost them for a long time I think. But the focus is on the players available, we have to compete."

Fati made his Barcelona debut aged 16, but has suffered from various injury setbacks throughout his short career.
