Yankuba Minteh
21-Year-Old
Brighton & Hove Albion
Premier
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Minteh had an impressive 2024/25 season given that he didn't have the hype of a major signing. Newcastle had to offload him last summer and that became the benefit of Brighton. He evolved to become a regular starter as the season progressed, finishing with double-digit goal contributions (six goals, four assists) while playing a significant role on either flank. He fits perfectly with Brighton's direct attacking style and played all but one match he was fit for, starting 13 league matches since February, a good sign for time heading into 2025/26.
12 crosses Sunday
Minteh recorded 12 crosses (three accurate) and two corners in Saturday's 2-2 draw versus Tottenham Hotspur.
ANALYSIS
Minteh recorded a season-high 12 crosses Saturday, dishing out three accurate crosses and one chance created in the process. While none of that production resulted in an assist, he still put a lot of pressure on the Spurs defense. He also won three tackles as he played the full 90 minutes for the first time since Dec. 13.

Can't play full game
Minteh is not fit to play a full game, coach Fabian Hurzeler said in the press conference, according to Derren Howard from the Sussex Express. "Yeah, that's for example one player we need to manage. We don't know if he's able to start or not start. He came back after a small issue so it's definitely someone we need to manage at the moment and therefore that's a good example what I meant, with the individual players who are not on the highest level and that's what we have to work on and we have to get them back on track."
