Chris Hughton urges Gareth Southgate to visit Brighton & Hove Albion

Brighton & Hove Albion boss Chris Hughton believes that England manager Gareth Southgate should consider Lewis Dunk, Solly March and Dale Stephens for the national team.

Chris Hughton has urged England manager Gareth Southgate to visit Brighton & Hove Albion as he believes that several of his players are worthy of an international call-up.

The Three Lions boss has not travelled to the Amex Stadium this season, but the Seagulls head coach is eager for Lewis Dunk, Solly March and Dale Stephens to be checked out.

Speaking ahead of Sunday's home Premier League game with Everton, Hughton told reporters: "What Lewis has done for us, this is a level he's looked very comfortable at.

"Since I've been at the club, I've only seen improvement in him. He's become a far better player as the years have gone by. He's not fazed at this level and I don't think he will be.

"The ones that have been mentioned include young Solly March, who has played for the Under-21s and done ever so well. And you have Dale Stephens who has had a really good start for us.

"Gareth would be aware of what we have, and you only have to look at the last game (Lithuania) and see he introduced players who have been in good form and haven't been involved before."

With England already qualified for next summer's World Cup finals in Russia, Southgate's team face friendlies against Germany and Brazil in November.
