Albion manager Chris Hughton says Elvis Manu is taking time to adapt to English football.
The 22-year-old Dutch attacker has yet to start a game for the Seagulls since a £1.5 million move from Feyenoord at the end of August.
Manu has made five substitute appearances in the Championship, spanning a total of just 68 minutes.
Manu played 33 games for Feyenoord last season in the domestic top flight and Europa League.
Hughton told The Argus: “He certainly works hard, he’s a really good lad. We took him as a player we know can play in a couple of positions, on the left or just off the front.
“Some players may take longer to adapt. He is from a very tactical league. It’s fair to say he has taken longer to adapt but he is certainly working hard.”
