Brighton & Hove Albion manager Graham Potter has expressed his delight after Aaron Mooy signed a permanent deal with the club. The Australia international initially joined the Seagulls on a temporary basis from Huddersfield Town last summer and his performances over the past six months have been rewarded with a permanent move to the AMEX Stadium.

Brighton & Hove Albion manager Graham Potter has heaped praise on Aaron Mooy following his standout display against Arsenal in the Premier League. The Australia international joined the Seagulls on a season-long loan from Huddersfield Town during the summer but he made a slow beginning to his career as he struggled for regular gametime.

Australia international Matty Ryan has acknowledged that he is pleased with the beginning to the season with Brighton & Hove Albion. The Seagulls ended the previous campaign in a disappointing fashion with just two wins following the turn of the year and they were still able to hold on to the 17th spot by a margin of two points ahead of Cardiff City.

As such, manager Chris Hughton was asked from the helm to be replaced with Graham Potter and the latter has made a sensational start to the season as Brighton secured a comfortable 3-0 victory on the road to Watford. Speaking after that game, Ryan admitted that he had a fine afternoon whereby the attempts on goal were minimal from the hosts.
