The club parted ways with Graham Potter who joined Chelsea on September 8, 2022 after he gave Brighton their best record start in their premier league history.
Roberto De Zerbi was the former coach of Ukrainian side Shakhtar Donetsk, the Italian tactician left after Russia began their special military operation in Ukraine.
The Italian tenacity will be put to test in his first match against Liverpool on Saturday.
