Report: Chris Hughton to be appointed Brighton & Hove Albion manager

Chris Hughton will be unveiled as the new manager of Championship club Brighton & Hove Albion later today, according to a report.

Brighton & Hove Albion will reportedly name Chris Hughton as their new manager during a press conference later today.

The Seagulls have been without a boss since Sami Hyypia resigned from his position earlier this month following a poor start to the season.

Nathan Jones has steadied the ship somewhat, having taken four points from two games during his time in temporary charge to steer Brighton out of the Championship relegation zone.

Sky Sports News claims that former Newcastle United and Norwich City manager Hughton will now take up the reins at the Amex Stadium, despite also being linked to the vacant position at West Bromwich Albion.

Brighton are back in action on Saturday when they take on Brentford in the FA Cup third round.
