Brighton hires former Shakhtar coach Roberto De Zerbi

Associated Press  

BRIGHTON, England — Premier League club Brighton is hiring Roberto De Zerbi as its new head coach on a four-year contract. De Zerbi left Ukrainian club Shakhtar Donetsk in July following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. “Roberto has shown his undoubted ability with his work in Italy and Ukraine, and what he achieved at Sassuolo certainly stands out,” technical director David Weir said. “In his short spell with Shakhtar he enjoyed further success, leading the club to cup success and topping the Ukrainian league before the war brought an abrupt halt to his time there.” Brighton is fourth in the Premier League standings after a strong start under Potter, who was hired to replace the fired Thomas Tuchel at Chelsea.
