Fabian Hurzeler has overlooked interest from Chelsea and Manchester United to commit his long-term future to Brighton & Hove Albion.
A report by TEAMtalk has revealed that Chelsea and Manchester United are interested in Fabian Hurzeler. The two Premier League giants are scouring the managerial market as they prepare to appoint a permanent head coach in the summer. Additionally, the youngster is a target for Bayer Leverkusen.
However, the three high-profile clubs must look elsewhere for a new head coach, as the Houston-born tactician has committed his long-term future to Brighton & Hove Albion. Hurzeler is happy with his project at the Amex Stadium, and he will remain at the high-flying Premier League club for the foreseeable future.
Fabian Hurzeler has established himself as one of the best young managers in the Premier League since joining Brighton & Hove Albion from FC St. Pauli in June 2024. Born in Houston, the 33-year-old spent his professional career in Germany, although his time was a footballer was not glamourous and he hung up his boots in 2022.
The German tactician had already entered the managerial sphere by then, taking charge of FC Pipinsreid between 2016 and 2020 as a player-manager. However, Hurzeler rose in prominence during his spell with FC St. Pauli, enjoying two productive years with the now-Bundesliga club.
