French trialist Jeremy Balmy enjoyed another run out for Albion’s under-21s as they drew in a friendly today.

The former Le Havre midfielder played the first 57 minutes of a 0-0 stalemate with Southend behind closed doors at the Seagulls’ training base in Lancing.

He was taken off as part of a triple substitution.

Jeffrey Monakana, who recently returned from a loan stint at Aberdeen, was lively for the Seagulls.
