Luke Littler won last night’s event at the Brighton Centre[/caption]

The action on night five of the competition came from Brighton and their club captain Dunk was pictured in the crowd.

Dunk was seen holding a pint of beer while wearing a replica of Littler‘s trademark purple shirt.

Sky Sports cameras cut to him in the stands and the defender was seen holding up a hand-written sign.

It had Brighton manager Fabian Hurzeler’s name scribbled on it with the words “in” and “out” crossed out several times.

Fans found it hilarious, with one saying: “Dunk with this sign cracked me up.”

Another added: “Having a great time by the looks of it.”

A third reacted: “Why is Lewis Dunk at the darts with a Hurzeler Out/in sign?????”

Dunk is currently out injured and has not featured in the Seagulls’ last four games.

The 33-year-old has been capped six times by England and was part of Gareth Southgate’s squad for the Euros last summer.

Brighton face Fulham tomorrow and Dunk will reportedly miss out again due to injury.

He is not the only Premier League player to have been spotted at the darts after Tottenham pair James Maddison and Brennan Johnson were seen at Ally Pally for the World Championships just hours after drawing 2-2 to Wolves in December.
