Bart Verbruggen
23-Year-Old
Brighton & Hove Albion
Premier
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Verbruggen was passable in his first season as the full-time Brighton starter. He kept seven clean sheets and allowed 58 goals behind a defensive unit that frequently changed shape due to injuries. He started all but two Premier League matches, both of which came early in the season when injured, and is the undisputed No. 1 goalkeeper for manager Fabian Hurzeler. Verbruggen will hope for double-digit clean sheets in 2025/26, something that should be attainable given a second year under Hurzeler and what expects to be a deeper, healthier Brighton squad.
Keeps clean sheet in win
Verbruggen made no saves and secured a clean sheet in Tuesday's 3-0 victory versus Chelsea.
ANALYSIS
Verbruggen logged a clean sheet in Tuesday's 3-0 home win over Chelsea, and he barely had to break a sweat as he wasn't called into action for a single save thanks to the Seagulls' dominant showing. Chelsea failed to register a shot on target across the full 90 minutes, marking the worst attacking performance by any side in a Premier League match this season and allowing Verbruggen to stay sharp but largely untested. He now sits on nine clean sheets in 34 Premier League appearances this season, a new career high by two, and will aim to keep that momentum rolling against Newcastle next week.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Candidate to leave Brighton
Verbruggen could leave Brighton in the summer if the team signs James Trafford, according to Florian Plettenberg of Sky Sports Germany.
ANALYSIS
Brighton are widely expected to sign a goalkeeper in the summer, as Verbruggen is pretty much a lock to leave the club in the summer due to his strong performances over the last two years. The Dutchman is widely expected to join one of the top teams in the Premier League, but his final destination will probably be known after the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
