Albion have wished former player Steve Cotterill a speedy recovery in his battle with Covid-19.

It was confirmed yesterday that the Shrewsbury manager is recovering in hospital after spending time in intensive care with coronavirus.

Cotterill spent a season on loan with the Seagulls in 1992-93 where he made 11 appearances and scored four goals.

Albion took to Twitter this afternoon with a picture of Cotterill in his Albion shirt with the accompanying message: "Everyone at Albion sends their best wishes to Steve Cotterill.

"We wish him a speedy recovery."
