Hughton told the club’s official website on Monday: ”The three players who went to the tournament are back this week – Leon comes back on Tuesday, Maty is back on Wednesday.
Balogun penned a two-year deal with Brighton to become the first Summer signing after choosing not to extend his contract with Mainz.
