Concedes three in loss to Cherries Verbruggen made three saves and allowed three goals in Sunday's 3-0 defeat to AFC Bournemouth.

Impact Verbruggen did not make any distinguishing saves Sunday and conceded three of the six shots he faced on goal. It has been four matches since the Dutch international's last clean sheet and he has only delivered three all season. It is unlikely that will improve in the Seagull's next which is against Aston Villa. Villa have lost only one of their last seven EPL games and that was to Manchester City.

Heroic despite loss Verbruggen recorded six saves and allowed two goals in Sunday's 2-1 defeat against Liverpool.

Impact Verbruggen stopped six of the eight shots that troubled his net and was well positioned for some near misses. In the end the sheer volume of Liverpool shots ended up beating Verbruggen, as Mohamed Salah snatched the second half winner. Verbruggen will have easier matches to look forward to, and even with the loss this was a respectable showing.

APRIL 1 • ROTOWIRE

Concedes one against Everton Verbruggen made one save and conceded one goal during Saturday's 1-1 draw against Everton.

Impact Verbruggen had another game with little action but this time he couldn't leave with the clean sheet as Jarrad Branthwaite found a way to beat him with a spectacular finish into the top corner to open the scoring for the opposition in the 73rd minute. That's now six saves, two goals allowed and one clean sheet over the last three starts for Verbruggen, who remains in a game-by-game fight for the starting spot at the net against Jason Steele.

FEBRUARY 26 • ROTOWIRE

Clean sheet victory Verbruggen recorded one save and allowed zero goals in Sunday's 5-0 victory versus Sheffield United. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 93rd minute.

FEBRUARY 20 • ROTOWIRE

Comes up victorious in return Verbruggen recorded four saves and allowed one goal in Saturday's 4-1 victory against Crystal Palace.

Impact Verbruggen made his return to action after a five-game absence, and he came up with an impressive performance to secure the win.

FEBRUARY 5 • ROTOWIRE

Allows one in draw Verbruggen recorded two saves and allowed one goal in Thursday's 1-1 draw against Crystal Palace.

Impact Verbruggen continues to fight for a the first place goalkeeping position with another solid performance Thursday. He's allowed just four goals in the last five matches, logging in 15 saves with a clean sheet in that span. The keeper also ups his average saves per game to 3.4 while also conceding less than a goal per contest.

Gets beaten twice versus Arsenal Verbruggen made six saves and conceded two goals during Sunday's 2-0 loss against Arsenal.

Impact Verbruggen was beaten twice during the second frame with both goals coming off close-range finishes he couldn't do much more to stop. On the other hand, the goalkeeper made several huge saves to prevent a much worse defeat to a vastly superior opposition. Verbruggen keeps fighting with Jason Steele for the starting spot as both have had ups and downs so far this season but it looks like the latter still has a slight edge over the former. Anyway, both will be hopeful to receive the nod for Thursday's visit to Crystal Palace.

DECEMBER 19, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Concedes one versus Burnley Verbruggen made two saves and conceded one goal during Saturday's 1-1 draw against Burnley.

Impact Verbruggen returned to the net after being benched in each of the previous two contests and ended up being betrayed by a deflection that made Wilson Odobert's shot go over him for the goal that broke the deadlock just before halftime. On the other hand, the goalkeeper made a pair of huge saves during the second frame to keep his side in contention. The competition with Jason Steele for the starting spot keeps very tight so it's very hard to bet on who will get the nod for Dec. 17 visit to Arsenal.

DECEMBER 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Concedes twice Verbruggen Conceded twice and made three saves in Saturday's 3-2 win over Nottingham.

Impact Verbruggen came back into the starting XI after sitting out the previous game, with manager Roberto De Zerbi continueing to rotate his keepers.

Verburggen found himself in the starting role for the first time in three matches against Everton, as he continues to share time with teammate Jason Steele. It is uncertain who will get the start in Thursday's UEL match, but you should most likely expect Steele to end up in the starting XI.

NOVEMBER 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Stops two shots Verbruggen registered two saves and allowed two goals in Sunday's 2-2 draw against Liverpool.

Impact Verbruggen stopped two of the four shots he saved to earn a draw during Sunday's clash with Liverpool.

Concedes once in victory Verbruggen made two saves and conceded once in Saturday's 3-1 win over Newcastle.

Impact Verbruggen was making his second start since signing from Anderlecht in the summer and he was denied his first clean sheet in a Brighton shirt when Callum Wilson struck in stoppage time. It remains to be seen if manager Roberto De Zerbi will stick with one goalkeeper or if he will rotate Verbruggen with Jason Steele throughout the season.

SEPTEMBER 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Concedes three in loss Verbruggen recorded four saves and allowed three goals in Saturday's 3-1 defeat versus West Ham United.

Impact Verbruggen had a rough go in his first appearance of the season, conceding three goals on seven shots. On a positive note, he managed four saves, but it was nowhere near enough to keep his side in the match. It was a rocky start for the rookie keeper, but at least his four saves provide a small foundation to build from as he progresses forward. Up next for Brighton is a meeting with Newcastle.

AUGUST 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Joins Seagulls Verbruggen completed a move to Brighton from Anderlecht on Monday.

Impact Verbruggen made 31 appearances for Anderlecht last season in which he conceded 39 goals while earning 11 clean sheets. With Brighton, the 20-year-old keeper will likely start the upcoming campaign with the U21 squad, especially with both Robert Sanchez and Jason Steele still under contract.
