Brighton and Hove Albion have signed Belgian winger Leandro Trossard from Genk, paying a reported initial fee of £15million for the player who scored 22 goals for his hometown club last season.
Trossard is the second player to arrive at the Amex Stadium since Graham Potter was named Brighton manager and he has signed a four year contract with the Seagulls.
The 24 year old played an instrumental role as club captain during Genk’s triumphant league campaign in 2018-19, scoring 14 goals in 34 appearances which doubled his previous best league goal tally for the club.
He also plundered an impressive eight goals in 11 Europa League appearances as Genk reached the round of 32, and was twice named as a substitute for Belgium but is yet to receive his first cap.
His arrival is a welcome one at Brighton, who only scored 35 goals in the Premier League last season, the lowest of all the clubs who avoided relegation.
