Former Huddersfield Town loanee Izzy Brown has revealed his season is over.

The Chelsea player has been at Brighton since summer but suffered a knee injury in Monday’s FA Cup victory against Crystal Palace.

It turns out he’s torn the cruciate ligament in his right knee and won’t play again until next season.
