Brighton are set to complete the signing of Georginio Rutter from Championship side Leeds United.
The Premier League side have activated the £40million release clause in Rutter’s contract at Leeds, according to Sky Sports News.
Georginio Rutter signed a five-and-a-half-year contract when he joined Leeds from Hoffenheim in a club-record deal of around £35million.
The 22-year-old scored eight goals and made 16 assists in 51 appearances for Leeds last season.
Rutter was strongly linked with a move to French giants Lyon last summer.
