DONE DEAL: Angers sign Brighton striker Abdallah Sima

Brighton striker Abdallah Sima will spend the 2022/23 campaign on a season-long loan with French Ligue 1 side Angers subject to international clearance.

The 21-year-old signed for Albion last summer from Slavia Prague, spending the last season on loan with Stoke City.

Technical director David Weir said, “This is an ideal loan, and one which will give Abdallah an opportunity to play regularly in French first division, gain more experience and continue his development.

“Last season was disrupted by injury for Abdallah at Stoke City, but we saw his ability in the games he did play and the potential he offers.

“We will keep a close eye on his progress and wish him well for the season ahead."
