The Seagulls are reinforcing their back line.
Details: Today, Brighton's official page on social network X announced the signing of 26-year-old Dutch centre-back Pascal Struijk from Leeds.
It is currently known that the transfer fee amounted to €23.2 million, with all other terms of the agreement remaining undisclosed by the clubs.
Last season, Struijk made 37 appearances for Brighton across all competitions and provided one assist. His current contract with the Seagulls runs until 2027, and, according to Transfermarkt, his market value stands at €27 million.
Following the 2025/26 season, Brighton will compete in the Conference League, making this transfer even more significant.
