Brighton Captain Dunk Remains Hopeful Welbeck's Injury is Not Serious

In a thrilling match on Saturday, Welbeck netted the winning goal for Brighton in their 1-0 victory over Newcastle. However, his heroics were cut short as he was forced to leave the pitch late in the game due to a back injury.

Dunk said afterwards: "I'm gutted to see him go off, he's been in top, top form this season. Hopefully it's not a bad injury and he'll be back soon.

"He was ruthless scoring his goal. Me and him have a good link up.

"He's one of the top professionals at this football club and he's a great key to our success. He helps everyone, young and old. Hopefully his injury is not too bad and we'll have him fighting to get fit."
