Brighton to bid big for Blackburn striker Ben Brereton

Brighton are chasing Blackburn Rovers striker Ben Brereton.

The Mirror says Graham Potter's side are willing to pay £20million for the striker to get a deal done in the next transfer window.

The former Nottingham Forest youth academy player shot to fame this year when he switched his international allegiance to Chile from England.

The 22-year-old has scored three goals in the nine matches he has played for La Roja and has become a cult hero in the country.

Albion have a good relationship with Blackburn and have loaned two exciting prospects, Reda Khadra and Jan Paul van Hecke, to the Championship side.
