‘I did everything I could’ – Balogun reflects on his difficult Brighton and Hove Albion stay

Leon Balogun has reflected on his difficult stay with Premier League side Brighton and Hove Albion.

The defender teamed up with the Seagulls in the summer of 2018 from German Bundesliga club Mainz 05, signing a two-year deal.

Balogun, however, struggled for game time featuring only in eight Premier League games in his debut campaign and this season he did not make a single league appearance for the side.
