Brighton boss Potter targets reunion with Man Utd winger James, Tottenham defender Rodon

Brighton are lining up a move for Manchester United winger Daniel James.

Tottenham defender Joe Rodon is also a summer target for the Seagulls.

The Sun says Brighton manager Graham Potter hopes to get the nod to land speedy winger James this summer.

The Welsh midfielder, 23, has seen his chances of a game at Manchester United hit hard by the £73million arrival of Jadon Sancho.

As well as James, Potter is on alert for his fellow Welshman, Rodon.

The Tottenham centre-half, also 23, could be available with the North Londoners closing in on Japanese defender Takehiro Tomiyasu.

James came to prominence at Swansea under Potter, who used his blistering pace to lethal effect.

The winger would be given the games he needs at this stage of his career on the south coast.

Rodon also emerged at Swans during Potter's reign alongside James.
