Italian transfer expert Fabrizio Romano is reporting Brighton have now made an approach to Verona to register their interest and open initial talks.
Coppola is attracting interest from Serie A rivals, including Juventus and AC Milan, though Brighton are the first suitor to make a serious enquiry.
The 21 year-old is tied to Verona until 2027.
