Brighton is in talks with an Argentine player, eyeing two wingers, and a pre-agreement deal..
Brighton manager Roberto De Zerbi is expected to be granted his wish of ‘three or four signings’ in the January transfer window.
Brighton manager Roberto De Zerbi has made it no secret that he is keen for his side to bolster their ranks during the January transfer window, both in the public eye and behind the scenes. The Italian called for ‘three or four’ new signings earlier this month, and the higher powers at the Amex Stadium are starting to prepare for an important window.
With Ansu Fati, Solly March and Julio Enciso all sidelined with injuries, the Seagulls would be interested in signing at least one forward if the correct opportunity arises. Versatile Nordsjaelland forward Ibrahim Osman is firmly among the considerations on the south coast following his blistering start to the season, Express Sport understands, though they aren’t alone in their interest.
Crystal Palace and Fulham have also shown an interest in the 19-year-old, with Arsenal monitoring his situation from afar. Top European clubs from Italy, France and Germany have also sent scouts to watch Osman, who is capable of playing on the wing and through the middle, though the race to secure his signature remains wide open.
Brazilian star Savio, who is on loan at Girona from Troyes, is also admired by Brighton, but there is an awareness that it will be tricky to lure him out of the City Group given the Spanish side’s unbelievable start to the campaign and links to Manchester City in recent weeks. PAOK playmaker Giannis Konstantelias has also been scouted heavily and he is regarded as a player that could be revisited at some stage.
