Aston Villa and Liverpool linked winger Brajan Gruda has emerged as the dream target for Brighton in the ongoing summer transfer window, according to Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano.
The 20-year-old winger had a solid season for Mainz in the Bundesliga and is considered a massive young prospect in Germany.
He has been heavily linked with a move away from Mainz, with both Aston Villa and Liverpool firm admirers of his qualities and having been linked with a swoop.
German giants Bayern Munich are also believed to be interested in him and he would prefer a move to Bavaria.
Now it has been claimed that Gruda is the top target for Brighton for the summer transfer window.
He is said to be the dream target for the Seagulls who have been enthralled by the winger’s potential.
They are yet to make a concrete move for him and signing Gruda is likely to be complicated as Mainz do not want to sell him this summer.
However, Brighton are having internal discussions over trying to take the winger to the Amex Stadium in the coming weeks.
