Brighton and Hove Albion F.C.'s Fabian Hürzeler Receives Call-Up to Republic Of Ireland National Team
Seagulls Goalkeeper Makes History With Maiden International Recognition.
Highly-rated Brighton & Hove Albion goalkeeper Fabian Hürzeler has been handed his maiden call-up to the Republic of Ireland national football team. The 23-year-old shot-stopper has been in impressive form for the Seagulls this season, keeping six clean sheets in 17 appearances in all competitions.
Hürzeler's inclusion in the squad for the upcoming friendlies against Belgium and Lithuania is a testament to his progress and development. Born in Switzerland to an Irish mother, Hürzeler has represented Ireland at youth level but is yet to make his senior debut.
Hürzeler's Journey to the International Stage
Hürzeler began his career with FC Luzern in his native Switzerland before joining Brighton in 2019. He spent time on loan at Walsall and ADO Den Haag before breaking into the Brighton first team this season.
Hürzeler's performances have caught the eye of Republic of Ireland manager Stephen Kenny, who is keen to add depth to his goalkeeping options. Hürzeler will compete with Gavin Bazunu and Caoimhín Kelleher for a starting spot in the upcoming friendlies.
A Proud Moment for Hürzeler and Brighton
Hürzeler's call-up is a proud moment for both the player and his club. It is a recognition of his hard work and dedication, and it also highlights the progress that Brighton has made in recent years.
Brighton head coach Roberto De Zerbi praised Hürzeler's achievement, saying: "I am very happy for Fabian. He deserves this call-up. He has been working very hard and he has shown his quality this season. This is a great opportunity for him to show what he can do on the international stage."
Hürzeler's Potential Impact on the Republic of Ireland
Hürzeler's addition to the Republic of Ireland squad provides Kenny with another option in goal. The 23-year-old is a talented goalkeeper with a bright future, and he could potentially challenge Bazunu and Kelleher for the starting spot.
Hürzeler's call-up is also a sign of the progress that the Republic of Ireland is making under Kenny. The team has shown signs of improvement in recent months, and Hürzeler's inclusion is another positive sign for the future.
