Neal Maupay: Brighton sign Brentford forward for £16m
Last updated on .From the section Brighton

Brighton have signed French striker Neal Maupay for £16m from Championship side Brentford.
The 22-year-old has signed a four-year deal with the Seagulls.
Maupay scored a total of 41 goals in 95 games for the Bees, finishing last season as the joint-second top scorer in the Championship with 25 league goals.
"Neal will add an extra dimension to our existing forward options," said Brighton boss Graham Potter.
"His record in the Championship has been exceptional and now his challenge is to transfer that to the Premier League."
The former France Under-21 international moved to England in 2017 when he joined Brentford on a four-year deal from Saint-Etienne.
Maupay has been capped by France at under-16 to under-21 levels, and last season was voted both Supporters' Player of the Year and Players' Player of the Year at Brentford.

Their scouting is second to none at EFL level, they buy good young players for low £Ms, get two or three years out of them, then sell them on at a huge profit. See also Mepham, Konsa, Hogan, Jota and Gray.
All while playing some of the best football in the league year in year out.
"Maupay has made a huge mistake going to Brighton, he'll get no service and as a result more bookings than goals..."
And that's based on what? with the squad and manager Albion have, he'll get more service than Murray got last year and he scored 12.
Brighton have the players to get the ball in the box if they're not all sat behind the ball like they were last year.
Brentford are a good club who bring on good players.
Hopefully your new manager will set you up to play the way you can this season.
All the best from a Hammer.
See you ( in the same division - whatever it may mean ) next year.
Good luck to him !
