Earlier this summer, Bayern Munich was linked to explosive German youngster Brajan Gruda, but an injury during EURO 2024 preparations knocked the attacker off of the radar of the Rekordmeister.
Now, though, Gruda will not have to worry about changing addresses within Germany, as he appears to be headed to Brighton & Hove Albion:
EXCL | Brajan #Gruda is very close to join Brighton with immediate effect!
Total verbal agreement is done. 20 y/o winger and top talent from Mainz 05
was already on-site. The bosses and Fabian Hürzeler convinced him to make the move.
⚠️ Understand there’s already an agreement between the clubs about a transfer fee of around €30m ✔️
Transfer should be finalized soon. Big step for the German national newcomer.
Gruda is an exciting prospect with big potential. It was will be interesting to see how he handles the platform in England.
