Dean Arthur Edward Cox (born August 12, 1987 in Cuckfield, England) is an English footballer, currently playing for Brighton & Hove Albion.
Dean made his Albion debut on the first day of the 2006/07 League One season in the 1-0 victory away at Rotherham United, although Dean was sent-off during this match for receiving two yellow cards. Dean played a major part during his debut season in the first-team playing in nearly all 46 League games and scoring 7 goals. Dean was originally offered a one-year deal with the Seagulls, but after impressing and several key performances, Albion tied Dean down to a three-year deal which would have kept him at the club until at least 2009, but this deal has yet been extended by a further year which will see him remain with the Albion until at least 2010.
Dean did make one appearance on the substitutes bench for the Albion, away at Plymouth Argyle during August 2005, but was not called on to the pitch.
In the summer of 2007, Dean was rewarded for his fine start to his Albion career by being handed the number 7 shirt, previously occupied by Alexandre Frutos.
Dean can play on either side of midfield, and can also play as a supporting striker.
