Brighton & Hove Albion manager Graham Potter is 'confident' of sealing a move for Huddersfield midfielder Aaron Mooy ahead of the 5pm deadline as the Seagulls seek further reinforcements this window.
Mooy would become the Seagulls' fifth summer signing after deals were completed for centre back duo Adam Webster and Matt Clarke, along with the additions of Leandro Trossard and Neal Maupay.

The BBC's Simon Stone has claimed that Potter deliberately left it late to strike a deal for Mooy, with the English boss confident that an agreement can be struck with the former Premier League side.
Stone adds that Potter's side have been monitoring 28-year-old all summer, with the former St Mirren man likely to add some steel to a midfield that finished narrowly above the relegation zone last season, just two points clear of the drop.
