Solly March

Solly March joined the Seagulls from Lewes in 2011 and worked his way into Albion's first team after impressing in the club's development squad.

The winger made his full first-team debut against Reading in the FA Cup third round before scoring his first professional goal against Port Vale in the fourth round during the 2013/14 campaign.

March's performances earned him a new deal with the club that secured the winger's long-term future and his displays also earned him an England Under-21 call up, for whom he made three appearances.

Solly's 2014/15 campaign was disrupted with injury, meaning he was limited to 13 appearances, although he did score his first league goal, netting against Fulham in the 2-0 win at Craven Cottage.

March was influential during the opening stages of the 2015/16 campaign, scoring three goals in three 2-1 victories for the Seagulls, but the winger's season was ended by a knee injury picked up against Derby County.

The winger returned from injury midway through the 2016/17 season and scored important goals against Brentford and Rotherham United, before scoring the all important goal that sealed Albion's promotion to the Premier League, in the 2-1 victory over Wigan Athletic at the Amex.

March started on the wing for Albion's Premier League opener against Manchester City, before the winger's first goal in the top-flight came against Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium.

The winger found the net twice in the 2018/19 season, scoring in a 2-1 home defeat to Chelsea, before scoring a dramatic late equaliser ahead of the penalty shoot-out victory over Millwall in the Emirates FA Cup.

He made a string of impressive performances for the first half of the 2020/21 season, but was ruled out from February onwards with a knee injury.

He signed a new contract with Albion in August 2021, that runs until the end of the 2023/24 campaign.

Solly's form during the 2022/23 campaign coincided with our best ever top-flight finish of sixth, securing European football for the club for the first time. Seven league goals was the best return for a season in his senior career, in what will go down as the best season of his career so far.

That form was rewarded in March 2023, as he signed a new deal that runs until June 2026.
