Hide AdPascal has become an integral member of the squad under Roberto De Zerbi and has missed just one match in all competitions this season, showing his versatility by playing in a variety of positions and scoring six goals.
The German signed a new contract with Brighton last June that was due to expire in 2024. His good form and importance to the team – especially if Moises Caicedo and Alexis Mac Allister exit this summer – has seen him rewarded with a new contract.
De Zerbi said, “I am absolutely delighted that Pascal has agreed a new contract with us.
“He is one of best players I have worked with during my career and every day I appreciate him more and more.
“He is one of the secrets to Albion’s success.”
