Percy Tau named in Brighton squad to face Newport County

South Africa international Percy Tau has been included directly in the Brighton & Hove Albion squad to face Newport County in the FA Cup on Sunday evening, only days after returning to the club.

The forward returned from his loan spell at Anderlecht on Thursday after the Seagulls decided they wanted him back in their squad to battle against relegation from the Premier League.

He had spent the last two seasons on loan in Belgium since joining Brighton from Mamelodi Sundowns in 2018, after being unable to secure a work permit to play in England.
