Brighton have joined the race for Chelsea defender Levi Colwill.

Leicester and Southampton are serious about the 19-year-old centre-back, who spent last season at Huddersfield Town.

The Argus reports that Brighton are 'aware' of Colwill's situation at Stamford Bridge.

Crystal Palace and Nottingham Forest are also interested in the Englishman.

For his part, Colwill wants to play regularly next season and could seek to leave Chelsea if he doesn't receive playing assurances.
