Roberto De Zerbi’s Brighton exit is the only solution due to irreconcilable differences

New York Times  

The departure of Roberto De Zerbi from Brighton & Hove Albion boils down to one core issue. De Zerbi was in a position of strength, having steered the club to sixth place in the Premier League and qualification for the Europa League, only to then lose Moises Caicedo to Chelsea for a British-record package of £115million, and Alexis Mac Allister to Liverpool for a fee that, with add-ons, could reach £56m. Roberto De Zerbi and Tony Bloom disagree on transfer strategy Dahoud’s move has not worked out. Since January, De Zerbi has made forthright remarks in some of his press conferences about the club’s January transfer business. Although Bloom did not welcome De Zerbi going public with his criticism, it was the contrasting attitudes continuing in private about what should be done in the summer transfer window that prompted a parting of ways, with the club announcing on Saturday afternoon that De Zerbi would be leaving following Sunday’s closing fixture at home to Manchester United.
