​Krul predicts big things for Brighton record signing Locadia

Dutch goalkeeper Tim Krul believes that new Brighton signing Jurgen Locadia has a big future at the club.

While Locadia is still getting to grips with his new surroundings, and the Premier League, fans will be hoping he can make a good impact before the end of the season.

Locadia got his first goal for the club in the FA Cup. And his Dutch teammate believes that he will be a star in the Premier League.

Krul said: "He's a great lad and he has major qualities and I'm pleased he scored.

"There is always a bit of pressure on a striker coming to England.

"To do it straight away will give him a massive lift.

"Hopefully he will be a big signing and get us to safety.

"He is quite serious. He has come here to do one job and that is to be top scorer. I like that.

"He is here with a mission and hopefully he is going to do it."
