Brighton Head Coach, Fabian Hürzeler has earmarked midfielder, Carlo Baleba as “a great player,” to watch.
Baleba failed to make much impact last season under Roberto De Zerbi following his move from Lille, but this season has already seen the 20 year-old Cameroon international produce one goal and assist in five appearances.
His performances unsurprisingly caught Hürzeler’s eye as the 31 year-old praised Baleba for his improvement and earmarked him as “a great player,” to watch.
“I think he’s a great player, he’s developing and improving fast and he’s adapting to the ideas very quickly. He understands it and as I have always said he has so much potential.
“When we go into detail there’s so many things where you can improve, and our job is to help him and to give him this environment.”
Hürzeler proceeded to praise his coaching staff for their work with Baleba but warned that the midfielder needs to keep improving in every area.
“I have great staff who help him every day – my assistant coaches and my analysts work with him and talk to him.
“It’s very important for young players that they always get fast feedback after their performance.
“It’s very important to find a balance when giving a player positive feedback, because also you have to say to him “you have to improve this and that”.
“I think that’s very important so as not to stagnate in your development. You have to always try to improve.”
