Brighton have managed to tie down one of their young hopefuls on a long-term deal.

The Albion have worked hard to secure the signature of Irish striker Mark O'Mahony in recent months.

O'Mahony has now penned a deal that will take him to June 2027 with the Premier League club.

After the announcement of the deal, Albion technical director David Weir said: “Mark has done really well since joining us in January last year and we're very happy with his progress.

“We're pleased to see him commit his future here.

“His form for the under-21s has seen his regular involvement with the men's first-team squad, and this new contract is recognition of that."
