DONE DEAL: Brighton boss Hughton welcomes RB Leipzig defender Bernardo

Brighton have completed the signing of RB Leipzig defender Bernardo.

The full-back is the Seagulls' fourth signing of the summer and has agreed a four year deal.

Brighton boss Chris Hughton said: “We're delighted to welcome Bernardo to the club. He is a strong, committed defender who can play on the left or right, and so his versatility gives us good options at the back.

“For a young player he already has good experience, having played in the Bundesliga, the Champions League and the Europa League.

“He is a good character and speaks numerous languages, and I'm sure he will fit in well with the rest of the squad."
