Welbeck (ankle) is questionable for Saturday's match against West Ham, according to manager Fabian Hurzeler. "Danny is not in the best shape and we'll have to see from week to week. It's an issue that can heal fast or also heal slow."
ANALYSIS
Welbeck will be a late call for Saturday's match, with the forward still battling his fitness after an injury. He appears to be a late call, likely needing to pass a fitness test ahead of the match to be an option. That said, he has been a regular starter, so he will hope to be fit and see the start. However, if he is left out, expect Georginio Rutter or Joao Pedro to start in his place.

Could sign new contract

OUT
October 10, 2023
Welbeck could sign a new contract with Brighton, according to Football Insider.
ANALYSIS
Welbeck is not as young as some of the other top players in the Brighton squad, but he's been very productive and brings a stable veteran presence upfront. Welbeck has netted just one goal in seven EPL appearances in 2023/24, but that goal was a game-winning strike against Manchester United.
