00:00Brighton midfielder Matt O'Reilly will undergo surgery on his ankle after suffering a bad
00:04injury on his debut for the club.
00:07The Denmark international was forced off less than 10 minutes into his debut against Crawley
00:11on Tuesday after being on the receiving end of a crunching tackle.
00:15O'Reilly, 23, completed a £25m move to Brighton from Celtic on Monday.
00:21Brighton manager Fabian Herzler described the tackle from Crawley's Jay Williams as
00:25ridiculous after the 4-0 win and says the midfielder is now set for a stint on the sidelines.
00:31''It is like we expected, it is a bad injury and he needs surgery on his ankle,'' said
00:36Herzler.
00:37''I can't say how long or when we expect him to be back because of rehabilitation.
00:42It is a tough one for us but we will try to support him the best we can.''
00:46Herzler added that O'Reilly was ''very disappointed'' but said the midfielder will be back stronger.
00:52Scotland midfielder Billy Gilmore has been linked with an exit from Brighton before
00:56the transfer window closes on Friday, with Napoli interested.
01:00Herzler says the club will review their plans for Gilmore in light of O'Reilly's injury.
