Brighton & Hove Albion’s Julio Enciso has had limited playing time this season, only accumulating 84 minutes in seven league games. Despite starting three EFL Cup matches for the Seagulls, the Paraguay international hasn’t seen the pitch in the league since October when he came off the bench against Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Manager Fabian Hürzeler has left Enciso on the bench for the following four matches and then excluded him from the squad for the last two league games. Reports from Paraguay suggest an ‘inevitable exit’ for the 20-year-old in the upcoming winter transfer market.
Although Brighton has no plans to sell Enciso, they may agree to loan him to a club in England, Spain, or Portugal to ensure he gets regular game time. Popular, another Paraguayan outlet, has also suggested a potential dry loan deal for Enciso in January, with interest from FC Porto and other clubs in Spain and England.
Enciso seems keen to find a new opportunity for more playing time, and while Brighton is reluctant to sell him outright, they may consider a temporary solution to aid in his development.
