Back in training Dunk was pictured in training Thursday after dealing with a minor injury the last couple weeks.

Impact Dunk is back with the team and should have a full week of training in before the Aug. 14 opener against Burnley. After missing a couple friendlies, it looks like he'll be ready for the start of the season and he'll be needed without Ben White to partner him on the back line.

Dealing with minor injury Dunk missed Saturday's friendly with an undisclosed injury and is a doubt for the next friendly on July 31, according to manager Graham Potter.

Impact Potter didn't describe the injury, but if it's holding Dunk out multiple friendlies, it's something to monitor with the season three weeks ahead. The center-back has started at least 33 matches each of the last four seasons and needs to be 100 percent at the start of the campaign to hit that number again.

JULY 26, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Keeps spot on back line Dunk scored five goals and secured 11 clean sheets in 33 starts this season with his lone absences being from two red cards.

Impact Dunk has been a rock for Brighton over the years and there's no reason for him to lose this role, especially when he's adding goals. He finished with 32 shots and 10 chances created, numbers that aren't often seen from center-backs, though it's hard to see him matching the five goals scored again. The question is what Brighton will do on their back line with a healthy Solomon March and Tariq Lamptey next season.

Eligible for finale Dunk served a two-match suspension and is eligible for Sunday's finale against Arsenal.

Impact Dunk should move back into the starting XI Sunday even though Brighton have nothing to play for. His return would likely push Dan Burn back out wide, though again, with nothing to play for, there's a chance Graham Potter mixes things up a bit more against Arsenal.
