Brighton & Hove Albion have entered negotiations with Benfica over a club-record deal for striker Darwin Nunez, The Mail reports.
The Seagulls have had a quiet transfer window, and they have landed just two signings in midfielder Enock Mwepu and goalkeeper Kjell Scherpen.
The club are eyeing a new centre-forward before the transfer deadline and appears to have their sights on long-term target Nunez.
Graham Potter’s side are prepared to offer around £25 million for the Uruguayan. The fee would break their existing transfer record.
