ALBION fringe striker Elvis Manu says he made the “wrong choice” signing for the club in the summer and is now in an unhappy marriage.
The 22-year-old, bought from Feyenoord for £1.5 million in August, has revealed his frustrations at limited first team opportunities in an interview with Dutch newspaper Metro.
Manu, left, said: “I made the wrong choice, as I sit here now in a desperate situation. These are difficult times.”
Manu has struggled to impress manager Chris Hughton and supporters.
He is yet to start a game for the Seagulls in the Championship, finally making his full debut in the FA Cup exit at Hull earlier this month after eight substitute appearances.
Manu said: “I once asked him (Hughton) why am I here. I always get the answer that I must be patient and must continue to train hard. Brighton and I do not have a happy marriage.”
