Newcastle United striker Kazenga LuaLua is eager to get started at Brighton.

The 19-year-old winger, who enjoyed a successful stint on the south coast last term, finalised his move on transfer deadline day but was signed too late to play in the Johnstone's Paint Trophy defeat by Leyton Orient.

Brighton's league clash with Plymouth on Saturday then had to be postponed due to Argyle's international contingent, leaving LuaLua kicking his heels until this weekend's visit of MK Dons.

"I'm looking forward to the weekend when I will hopefully play against MK Dons," he said.

Lualua's initial deal runs until January but he admits he could end up staying longer.

"At the moment I am here until the new year and what happens after that will happen," he added. "If Brighton still want me they will have to talk to Newcastle but I'm just going to play my football and we'll wait and see."
