#4: Laurent Blanc

If Brighton are really looking to make a statement of intent for the coming season, then appointing former PSG and France manager, Laurent Blanc, would do exactly that.

The Frenchmen is, surprisingly, one of the early names being touted for the job and his wealth of experience would no doubt help to keep Brighton stable in the Premier League for the coming years.

It was only this season that Blanc was being linked as a possible replacement for Manchester United manager, Jose Mourinho, and his appointment would be seen as one hell of a coup for the South-Coast club.

The biggest factor with Blanc would no doubt be money, and if Brighton are looking for a cheap option, then Blanc will certainly not be it.

The fact that he has not been in management for three years, however, could mean that he will be more willing to bend for a potential position.
