Albion wideman Solly March looked in good shape as he got involved in a team training session.

The winger was featured in a gallery of photos from a Tuesday morning workout at Lancing yesterday.

He has been out of senior action for more than a year – and it is now almost two months since he had a 25-minute outing for the under-21s in their 10-0 win over Crystal Palace.

Head coach Fabian Hurzeler has remained upbeat that he will be in Prem action this season.

He has twice been asked for updates at press conferences in recent weeks.

Speaking ahead of the Carabao Cup tie against Liverpool, he indicated there had been a small setback.

THIS IS HOW JULIO ENCISO FARED WITH BRIGHTON UNDER-21S

He said: “He is working physically in the gym very hard on it.

“He is working physically outside the pitch very hard to get there.

“Again, we have to be patient with him.

“It was a long injury and you have to go there step by step to get the comeback.

“But I am sure he will get his comeback this season.

“I can’t say a clear schedule when we plan this comeback on the pitch.

“But he had now some minutes for the under-21s.

“He had a small issue now with a muscle but nothing big.”

Then, ahead of the Manchester City match, he said: "It's treating him very carefully. The comeback after such a long injury is a comeback in waves. You will train, you will have a good feeling, but at one point you will feel your body again.

"Then it's about listening to your body, getting the feeling back for your body. I think that's very important. Solly is experienced enough to handle this.

"Our medical department together with Solly are doing a great job.”

Lewis Dunk was also pictured with the group as they work towards Friday’s visit from Southampton.
