Solly March told he can leave Brighton - reports

All the latest transfer news and gossip for Brighton and Hove Albion and across the Premier League

Experienced winger Solly March could be on the brink of leaving the club.

March is out of contract this summer and as yet there has been little talk of a new deal.

The 31-year-old is fully fit once again after a terrible run of knee injuries for almost two seasons.

March played the final 30 minutes of Albion's 3-0 loss to Manchester United in the final Premier League match of the season. He has though managed just four appearances this term with 38 minutes of top flight action.

‘End of an era’

talkSport football writer Alex Crook posted: "@talkSPORT understands Solly March has been told he can leave #BHAFC with his contract [expiring] this summer. End of an era for a fan favourite."

March is among a number of players out of contract this summer. The futures of Adam Webster, James Milner and Joel Veltman are also uncertain as Brighton make their plans for next season - which will involve Conference league football.

Brighton boss Fabian Hurzeler added: "Now it’s important to analyse the squad and understand what was good, what was bad, and where we need to improve.

"Some contracts are running out, so there will be a lot of planning for next season. But we are a very well-structured club and I really trust Tony, Paul, Mike and Chase to make the right decisions for the club. I’m looking forward to the challenge.

Hurzeler plans talks

Hurzeler added: "Let’s wait and see over the next few days because first of all we want to reflect on the season and everyone’s performances.

"It’s important that every player receives individual feedback, and after those conversations we’ll see what happens."

March is firm favourite with the Brighton fans and has made 300 appearances for the Seagulls with 26 goals and 31 assists. He joined the club in 2011 from local non-league team Lewes.
