Arsenal striker Chuba Akpom has joined Brighton on loan for the remainder of this season.
The move has been confirmed by both clubs and a statement on Arsenal’s website read: “Chuba Akpom will join Championship leaders Brighton & Hove Albion on loan. The loan is subject to the completion of regulatory processes.”
The 21-year-old forward is highly rated by the academy staff and the Gunners want him to continue his development with regular first-team football. Akpom was a huge hit at Hull City last season and the Londoners are hoping that he can have a similar impact at Brighton now.
