A Heartbreaking Blow: Brighton’s Key Player and Mitoma Miss Fulham Clash Due to Fresh Injuries
In a cruel twist of fate, Brighton & Hove Albion will face Fulham today without two of their most crucial players—one a stalwart in midfield, the other a dazzling winger whose performances have electrified the team’s attack. Both [Brighton key player] and Kaoru Mitoma have been sidelined due to fresh injuries picked up during training, casting a long shadow over the match.
The news came as a devastating blow for the club and its supporters. For [Brighton key player], who has been a lynchpin in the heart of the team, this latest injury feels especially cruel.

Kaoru Mitoma, too, has been a revelation this season. His dazzling runs, his ability to find space where others see none, and his eye for goal have made him one of the Premier League’s most exciting talents. The Japanese winger has been a consistent threat on the left flank, terrorizing defenders with his pace and creativity. To know that he will be absent for such an important match adds to the growing sense of disappointment.
The timing of these injuries couldn’t have been worse.
