Kozlowski, who was substituted during the preseason friendly draw against Union SG last Saturday, will continue his recovery and preseason preparations at the cub’s training ground.

Kozlowski joined Brighton last January for £8m from Pogon Szczecin and is contracted with Albion until June 2026.

He spent last season on loan at Union but the 18-year is expected to challenge for place in the Potter’s matchday squads this season.

Brighton’s next friendly is at Reading on July 23, followed by Espanyol at the Amex on July 30.

Albion’s first fixture of the new Premier League season is at Manchester United on August 7.
