Impact Steele is going to remain with Brighton moving forward for the next few seasons, inking an extension with the Seagulls until the end of the 2026/27 season.

Brilliant in Carabao Cup Steele got the start during Wednesday's 6-0 win over Oxford United.

Impact Steele seemed to have an easy clean sheet based off the score and the opposition, but in reality he was brilliant Wednesday. He made 10 saves and earned a clean sheet with a heroic showing.

Future uncertain at Brighton Steele started just three matches across league and the FA Cup this past season.

Impact Steele opened the season as starter when Bart Verbruggen was injured, but once that changed, he was relegated to the bench indefinitely.

Returns to bench Steel is back on the bench after missing multiple months due to shoulder surgery.

Impact Steele missed roughly three months due to his shoulder injury, but he'll be available to close the season.

Impact Steele will have to wait four to five more weeks before getting back on the pitch. He underwent a shoulder surgery in late January and is still recovering from it.

Impact Steele is likely out for the next few months, as the goalie underwent surgery due to shoulder complications. Luckily for the club, he is their backup, so this won't force a change. He will probably remain out from anywhere for four to six months as the club did not disclose the type of surgery, with Carl Rushworth to takeover backup duties while he is out.

Impact Steele opened the campaign as the starting goalkeeper and led the Seagulls to back-to-back wins over Everton and Manchester United, but he hasn't featured in a Premier League match since then. Bart Verbruggen seems likely to remain in the starting role going forward, meaning Steele will probably be limited to appearing in cup matches as long as the Dutchman remains healthy and available.
