Brighton transfer news – Brighton is close to signing Igor from Fiorentina
According to the Italian newspaper Corriere Dello Sport, Brighton is close to a deal to sign Igor, a Brazilian defender from Fiorentina. The run was between Fulham and the Seagulls, but De Zerbi’s side took the upper hand since the entrance. It is believed that the club will pay between €13-14m for the transfer and the agreement should be done by the start of the week. Igor is seen as a great option for the defence and also to replace Levi Colwill, as Chelsea doesn’t want to sell the player.
