Brighton star Kaoru Mitoma has attracted significant transfer interest following an impressive 2022/23 season on the south coast. The Japan international has recently emerged as the latest gem unveiled by the Seagulls after he was signed from J1 League side Kawasaki Frontale for just £2.7million in 2021.
From 34 appearances in all competitions, Mitoma has grabbed 10 goals and seven assists and therefore been a driving force behind Brighton's unlikely push for European football. Subsequently, both Chelsea and Arsenal have shown a keen interest to bring the 25-year-old to London.
Brighton are no strangers to fellow English clubs targeting their players and CEO Paul Barber has admitted that he's ready to fend off offers for the £50million-rated winger in the summer.
