Brighton move for Yohanna, enquire over Soule
James Milner, who ended his career at Brighton, retires at 40 after a record 658 Premier League games and major honours with Man City and Liverpool, plus 61 England caps.
Brighton are in advanced talks to sign AIK winger Zadok Yohanna for about €22m, a fee that would set a Swedish sale record. The 18-year-old has 5 goal involvements in 7 Allsvenskan games.
Brighton and Aston Villa have spoken to Matias Soule’s camp. Roma want around €40m to start talks for the Argentine attacking midfielder after a mixed spell due to injury.
Sophie Baggaley will leave Brighton as her deal ends, with Libby Bance also departing and Rosa Kafaji returning to Arsenal. Chiamaka Nnadozie is set as No 1 amid a goalkeeping and coaching reset.
Jason Ayto departs Brighton after nine months as sporting director. Tony Bloom and Paul Barber thank him. Technical director Mike Cave now oversees all sporting areas, reporting to Barber.
