Man Utd scout Brighton star Kaoru Mitoma as new transfer target emerges for Erik ten Hag

Manchester United are tracking the progress of Brighton star Kaoru Mitoma following his impressive breakthrough season at the Amex Stadium.

Mitoma has been sensational under Roberto De Zerbi this term. The Seagulls signed the Japan international from Kawasaki Frontale for just £2.7million in 2021, before he was immediately sent out on loan to sister club Union Saint-Gilloise.

The 25-year-old only made his full Brighton debut back in August during a Carabao Cup tie against Forest Green, but hasn't looked back since making his first Premier League start against Chelsea back in October. Mitoma has started every game he has been available in since and has been a key component in the Seagulls' Champions League bid.
