26-Year-Old
Brighton & Hove Albion
Premier
Starting in defense
Wieffer (ankle) is in the starting XI for Sunday's season finale against Manchester United.
ANALYSIS
Wieffer made his return from the ankle issue that had ruled him out of the last two fixtures, with coach Fabian Hurzeler handing him a starting role after confirming he would be an option for the final match of the campaign. The versatile midfielder has been one of Brighton's most important players this season, and his immediate return to the lineup is a significant boost for the Seagulls heading into the Manchester United clash. He has contributed two goals, three assists, 71 clearances, 64 tackles and 20 chances created across 25 Premier League appearances this season.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Brighton showing interest
Brighton are interested in signing Wieffer in the summer transfer window, according to The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
Brighton are looking to bolster their midfield, especially if Pascal Gross departs the team in the summer, and Wieffer is one of the top options the team is looking at. He wasn't part of the Netherlands team for the Euros due to an injury, but at his best, the 24-year-old is one of the most consistent under-25 midfielders in Europe's second-tier leagues.
