Sonny Cobbs

Sonny Cobbs is an English professional football player for League One side Brighton & Hove Albion. Sonny can play either in central defence or at left-back.

Sonny was awarded a one-year contract with the Seagulls in May 2007 after playing for the Reserve and Youth Teams.

Sonny was the youngest member of the team which reached the quarter-final of the 2005-06 FA Youth Cup, losing on penalties to Newcastle United after beating Port Vale, Chelsea and Blackburn Rovers in the previous rounds. He became Youth Team captain in 2006-07.

At the beginning of July 2007 it was revealed that Sonny, along with fellow other youth team players Sam Gargan, Lloyd Skinner and Chris Winterton were to be loaned out for three months to local teams for them to gain experience playing at a professional level.

Sonny, along with first-year professional Sam Gargan joined Worthing.

Since this deal expired, Sonny has signed on loan for Conference South team Dorchester and joins fellow Albion youngster Wes Fogden who is also currently on loan at the club.
