Brighton's Australian goalkeeper Mat Ryan is heading back to the country.
Now has come the time to head back and hopefully resume the season when deemed safe to do so. Have tried to make the most of these unusual times and (within the guidelines) take advantage of the time being closer to those who mean most. Already looking forward to next time. ❤️✌🏼 pic.twitter.com/b2ENQUVcYL — Maty Ryan (@MatyRyan) May 12, 2020
