Here’s the latest on Brighton’s manager age.
- Fabian Hurzeler, appointed in 2024, is widely reported as 31 years old at the time of his appointment, making him the youngest permanent Premier League head coach in history. He was born in 1993, and the club announced his three-year deal around June 2024.[2][4][5]
- After his appointment, coverage emphasized his age as a defining aspect of the hire, with outlets noting the historic nature of selecting a 31-year-old manager for a top-flight club.[5][6][2]
If you want, I can pull the most recent minutes or official club statement to confirm whether his age has been updated or if there’s a new appointment since then.
