BIRMINGHAM, England (Reuters) - Brighton & Hove Albion are resigned to losing two of their leading players in the close season despite the club's best-ever top-flight campaign in which they finished sixth to qualify for the Europa League and their first ever European campaign.

Manager Roberto de Zerbi said Alexis Mac Allister and Moises Caicedo, their two outstanding midfield performers this season, are likely to leave and added the club's policy of unearthing young talent for the first team is the core to their ethos.
