Brighton are poised to step up their £20million pursuit of Odsonne Edouard after Celtic’s Champions League qualification clash with FC Midtjylland.
The Parkhead club go to Denmark for Wednesday’s second leg, with the tie finely poised at 1-1. Manager Ange Postecoglou has already said he won’t stand in the way of unsettled players if they want to leave.
And Sportsmail understands Brighton will wait until this week’s Champions League tie is complete before formalising an offer, with English Premier League rivals Crystal Palace also interested.
Speaking after Saturday’s 6-2 hammering from West Ham, Postecoglou admitted he needed more new players.
