Newcastle needed to sell Minteh last summer to ease their difficulties with the Premier League's profitability and sustainability rules (PSR). The club had left themselves open to a possible points deduction if they failed to make sufficient sales before the June 30 reporting deadline.

Matt O'Riley's Brighton & Hove Albion career has not gone to plan. The 24-year-old midfielder has not started three Premier League games in succession for Brighton & Hove Albion and is yet to complete 90 minutes since signing from Celtic for £25million ($33m) last summer. O'Riley was a first-team regular at Celtic under Ange Postecoglou and the Australian's successor, Brendan Rodgers.

Part of Brighton & Hove Albion's recruitment strategy is appreciating when is the right time to sell their valuable assets, such as Kaoru Mitoma. They will have a big call to make in the summer if another hefty bid is made for the Japan international left-winger, who missed his first league game of the season as Brighton drew 2-2 at home against relegation candidates Leicester City on Saturday.

Head coach Fabian Hurzeler says Brighton & Hove Albion should not talk about qualifying for Europe after the 2-2 home draw against Leicester. Brighton led twice through Joao Pedro penalties in both halves, but equalisers by Stephy Mavididi and Caleb Okoli gave 19th-placed Leicester their first points and goals for nine games.

Brighton & Hove Albion could be without Kaoru Mitoma for Saturday's home game against Leicester City. The Japan left-winger suffered a heel injury in the 2-1 defeat at Crystal Palace at the weekend. Speaking in Friday's pre-match press conference ahead of Leicester's visit, head coach Fabian Hurzeler said: "Kaoru is doubtful. He will try it in training today."Referee Anthony Taylor awarded a free-kick to Palace after Mitoma was hurt in a challenge with Maxence Lacroix.

How does Brighton’s Europe ambition stand after their FA Cup exit and successive league defeats? Analysis of the run-in for Fabian Hurzeler’s side. #BHAFC https://t.co/7BxOv1bqwX

Fabian Hurzeler has endured defensive chaos all season due to injuries and now Jan Paul van Hecke is suspended. #BHAFC https://t.co/pTgj32UlKU

Or maybe not.

Still 8th (Bournemouth drew 2-2 at West Ham). Fulham can go 8th if they win at home to Liverpool tomorrow, which is obviously difficult. #BHAFC #CRYBHA
