Brighton are eyeing a last minute deal for Chelsea midfielder Billy Gilmour with the promising Scot looking to get his career back on track after dismal spell with Norwich... but loan rules mean any deal must be permanent

Brighton remain hopeful of signing Billy Gilmour permanently from Chelsea before the end of the transfer window.

The Seagulls have not yet given up on landing talented young Scotland midfielder Gilmour despite his return to the Chelsea fold.

Any move would have to be a permanent one with Brighton having already taken centre-back Levi Colwill on loan from the Stamford Bridge club.

Gilmour joined Chelsea from Rangers and broke into the first team under Frank Lampard in 2019, standing out in his early performances.
