A Brighton star is reportedly the top earning under-21 player in the Premier League this season.

The Seagulls signed Barcelona winger Ansu Fati in the summer, with the 21-year-old joining on a season-long loan deal from the Catalan giants.

Brighton are reportedly paying the Spanish international £160,000-a-week during his loan deal, according to GiveMeSport, citing data from Capology.

The deal sees Brighton cover 80 per cent of Fati's £200,000-a-week wages at Barcelona.

Fati has scored four goals in 18 appearances for the Seagulls during his loan spell, but has missed 13 matches due to injury.
