Brighton are reported to have approached Chelsea about a season-long loan deal for midfielder Danny Drinkwater, who seems set to be allowed to leave after just one appearance for the Stamford Bridge side last season.
The Seagulls signed Adam Webster from Championship side Bristol City this weekend, taking their spending north of the £40m mark after the signings of Portsmouth defender Matt Clarke and KRC Gent winger Leandro Trossard earlier in the window.
They are not stopping there either. They're interested in Rangers captain James Tavernier
among other targets ahead of Thursday's transfer deadline, and the Mail report now that Drinkwater can be added to the list of potential incomings on the south coast.
