Brighton transfer state of play – £25m deal scuppered, Evan Ferguson ‘advised’ on West Ham and Brighton and Hove Albion face transfer decisions before the window closes. Despite spending over £200m last window, they seek a central defender due to Igor Julio’s injury. Adam Webster’s return boosts their defense, but they may consider reducing squad size. Tariq Lamptey and Jakub Moder’s contracts expire this summer, and decisions must be made on their futures. Evan Ferguson and Julio Enciso may seek loan moves for more playing time. Brighton remains interested in Vitor Ries, but Manchester City’s offer was accepted.
