Chelsea centre-back Tosin Adarabioyo has struggled to make an impression for Enzo Maresca, but with Brighton seeking to sign the former Fulham star, he could give the club’s bank balance a huge boost.

This one comes from the Daily Mail, so take it with as many grains of salt as you’d like, but they claim in an exclusive that Brighton & Hove Albion are interested in signing Tosin Adarabioyo from Chelsea and are “keen on trying to tempt” the 27-year-old away after just seven months at Stamford Bridge.

The Daily Mail says Brighton are planning to bid for Adarabioyo during this month's transfer window. And the Seagulls believe they can convince Chelsea to sell. Adarabioyo moved to the Blues just last summer after coming off contract at Fulham and making a quick profit would suit the Blues board.
