Bayer Leverkusen is monitoring Brighton & Hove Albion coach Fabian Hürzeler as a potential replacement for Kasper Hjulmand.

Bayer Leverkusen is keeping a close eye on Brighton & Hove Albion coach Fabian Hürzeler, who is being touted as a potential replacement for Kasper Hjulmand. The 33-year-old German coach led St. Pauli back to the Bundesliga in 2024 and has made a strong impression at Brighton.

Hürzeler’s future at Brighton is uncertain, with the Seagulls currently sitting 10th in the Premier League. Leverkusen sees him as a viable option if they decide to part ways with Hjulmand, whose position is under increasing pressure.

Hjulmand’s struggles in the league have prompted Leverkusen to explore alternative options. The club’s relationship with Hjulmand remains professional, but they are keeping their options open for a fresh start ahead of the 2026-27 season.

Hürzeler’s impressive track record makes him an attractive prospect. He guided St. Pauli to promotion and has stabilized Brighton, leading them to an eighth-place finish in his first season. Leverkusen is likely to make a decision on Hjulmand’s future soon. If they opt to replace him, Hürzeler could be a top contender for the job.
