Brighton are team that have to make their pounds work harder than most as they continue to punch above their weight in the top flight. Albion operate on a relatively small budget compared to many but the club are currently sixth in the Premier League after a successful start to the season.
It's all the more impressive as they have recently generated more £150m in player sales – with the likes of Ben White moving to Arsenal, Yves Bissouma to Tottenham and Marc Cucurella to Chelsea – and they also lost the services of head coach Graham Potter and his entire management team who left for Chelsea earlier this season.
Albion's data driven and shrewd approach – driven by their owner and chairman Tony Bloom and chief executive Paul Barber – allows them to compete with global giants such as Manchester United, Liverpool, Man City, Tottenham, Arsenal, Chelsea and now Newcastle.
