Brighton and Hove Albion are interested in signing Lucien Agoume, according to TBR. Arsenal wanted to sign 23-year-old midfielder in January 2025 and in the summer transfer window.
Journalist Graeme Bailey told TBR: “Jason Ayto is a hugely respected figure within football, his name always comes up when I am talking to people around the game in terms of ones to watch.
“Ayto was very close to landing the Arsenal job and also Newcastle, he is that good – so for Brighton to get him is something of a coup.
“Brighton did not want to lose out, they have moved on from David Weir which is a big deal – which just highlights how highly they rate Ayto.
“This is really future proofing the club and where they want to go.”
Agoume is one of the best young midfielders in Europe and is 23 years of age. The Frenchman made 37 appearances for Sevilla last season, scoring one goal and providing three assists in the process.
