Yankuba Minteh News: Can't play full game

Minteh is not fit to play a full game, coach Fabian Hurzeler said in the press conference, according to Derren Howard from the Sussex Express. "Yeah, that's for example one player we need to manage. We don't know if he's able to start or not start. He came back after a small issue so it's definitely someone we need to manage at the moment and therefore that's a good example what I meant, with the individual players who are not on the highest level and that's what we have to work on and we have to get them back on track."

Minteh still has to build his fitness following his return from his thigh injury and isn't yet fit to play the full 90 minutes. The forward will likely see some playing time off bench to allow him to gradually build on his fitness before claiming back his undisputed starter role for the Seagulls.
