Daniel Farke will doubt miss the Frenchman, but it was always going to prove to be hard to keep hold of the forward.

Rutter seems like a favourite around Brighton, and his transfer fee of £40m is certainly proving to be worth every penny for the Seagulls.

It’s clear that the 22-year-old still holds a special place for the Whites as Rutter celebrated with a Leeds salute vs Southampton, which will have pleased Whites fans.

Now, what Rutter has done in the Premier League shows exactly why Farke will be missing the forward.


A stat that has emerged from PFF FC shows that Rutter has been the most two-footed player in the Premier League this season 58% of his passes, crosses, shots, and clearances are with his left foot, and 42% with his right foot.

Rutter has played 27 premier league games for Brighton, scored 5 goals and has 3 assists.

This means that 210 events have come from his left and 149 from the Frenchman’s right, making for a rare option to have in the top flight.

Rutter could attract interest in the summer after eight goal involvements and consistent performances under Fabian Hurzeler.
