Flurry of service off the bench Minteh recorded eight crosses (one accurate) and one chance created in Wednesday's 1-0 defeat to Arsenal.

Impact Minteh was brought on to add some flair to the Brighton attack and unfortunately, most of his crosses couldn't find a teammate. He should have more luck against Sunderland as the side has started to fade a bit of late, though his poor display against Arsenal might translate to less playing time.

Impact Minteh still has to build his fitness following his return from his thigh injury and isn't yet fit to play the full 90 minutes.

Available against Bournemouth Minteh (thigh) is back available for Monday's clash against Bournemouth, coach Fabian Hurzeler said in the press conference, according to Chris Nightingale from Sky Sports.

Impact Minteh has recovered from the dead leg he suffered against West Ham United and is back available for Monday's clash against the Cherries. This is good news for the Seagulls, since he has been a regular starter for the team and is expected to reclaim his role in the upcoming fixtures. If Minteh is not fit enough to start the game on Monday, Diego Gomez and Brajan Gruda are the two likely options to start in his spot.

Remains doubtful Minteh (thigh) remains a doubt moving forward, coach Fabian Hurzeler said in a press conference, according to Andrew James from We Are Brighton.

Impact Minteh is still dealing with a thigh injury that made him miss the last two games and remains a doubt moving forward. His next chance to play in the Premier League will come against Bournemouth on Jan. 19 if he can't make the squad for the Carabao Cup game against Manchester United on Sunday. Until he returns fully fit, Brajan Gruda is expected to see a greater role for the Seagulls.

Missing again Minteh (thigh) is out for Wednesday's match against Manchester City.

Impact Minteh is not an option and is still battling his thigh injury, missing a second match of action due to this injury. He will now eye a return this weekend in FA Cup action, although they may be cautious and wait until the Jan. 19 match against Bournemouth.

Impact Minteh missed Sunday's clash against Burnley following the dead leg he suffered against West Ham United and isn't yet fully fit according to coach Fabian Hurzeler, making him a doubt for Wednesday's clash against Manchester City. The forward is an undisputed starter on the right flank when fit for the Seagulls, therefore if he had to miss another game, his absence will force a change in the starting XI, with Brajan Gruda likely playing on the right side of the attack again.

However, there are still some questions on if he can start or not, with the forward potentially left on the bench for caution. If this were the case, a change would be made, with Kaoru Mitoma or Brajan Gruda as potential options.

Subs off injured against West Ham Minteh suffered a potential thigh injury that prevented him from completing Tuesday's game versus West Ham, Andy Naylor of The Athletic reports.

Impact Minteh went down with the injury after attempting one shot and winning a penalty kick over 58 minutes on the pitch Tuesday. He's now at risk of missing upcoming fixtures, but the severity of his situation remains unknown. The attacker has been a reliable source of shots and crosses while recording one goal and four assists in the current campaign. However, Brajan Gruda could take his place on the right wing in the event of a serious issue.

Three shots during loss Minteh generated three shots (zero on goal), six crosses (two accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-0 defeat versus Liverpool.

Impact Minteh took three shots and created a chance during Saturday's loss, but nothing would beat Alisson.

Minteh hasn't gotten on the scoresheet in the last four matches, and remains on five goal contributions for the season.

He then delivered the superb right-flank cross that Danny Welbeck scored to tie the game in the 71st minute. Minteh matched his season highs with three shots and four chances created, serving as the main threat in the frontline for the Seagulls and constantly putting pressure on the Bees defense with his runs and dribbles from the right wing. Minteh is scoring fewer goals this season for Brighton but has already tied his four-assist total from last season and will look to add to his tally in Sunday's clash against Forest.

Two shots in draw Minteh recorded two shots (zero on goal), nine crosses (one accurate) and four corners in Sunday's 0-0 draw against Crystal Palace.

Impact Minteh took a pair of shots and four corners as well as sending in nine crosses Sunday. The volume was good, but he was largely inaccurate with that volume, putting no shots on goal and only a single cross on target. Minteh will need to be more efficient with his volume to get back on the scoresheet after the international break.

Cross for assist Minteh logged one assist on six crosses (one accurate) and three corners during Brighton & Hove Albion's 3-1 win Saturday at Chelsea.

Impact Minteh's accurate cross is how Danny Welbeck scored using his head. Fortunately for the former, September 2025 is an excellent month. Brighton & Hove Albion's three games include his same number of G/A, one goal and two assists.

Impact Minteh was out of some training sessions this week but has recovered his fitness to be an option Saturday, with the forward returning to training Thursday ahead of their contest. This is huge news for the club, as he has yet to miss a start and has earned a goal contribution in their past two outings, likely to return to that spot against the Blues.

Nets opener Saturday Minteh scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-2 draw versus Tottenham Hotspur.

Assist in loss to Cherries Minteh assisted once to go with three shots (one on goal), six crosses (one accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 2-1 loss against AFC Bournemouth.

Impact Minteh went the full 90 in Saturday's 2-1 loss at Bournemouth. He placed a shot on target and had two other attempts blocked, but his key contribution was creating the assist for Kaoru Mitoma's goal. It was the winger's first direct contribution from four league appearances this season despite consistent minutes, following a 2024-25 campaign that saw him post six goals and four assists. While his pace and attacking intent keep him involved, Minteh's contribution will depend on Brighton creating more quality chances in transition.

Double-digit goal contributions Minteh recorded six goals and four assists across 32 appearances (20 starts) in the Premier League.

Impact Despite not being one of the team's household players, Minteh ended up being one of the most consistent producers for the Seagulls. The 10 goal contributions were a career-high mark for him in his second season with the club, and he could be in line for an expanded role in 2025/26, particularly if players such as Joao Pedro and Kaoru Mitoma end up leaving in the summer. Minteh certainly showed he belongs in the EPL with his play in 2024/25.
