Brighton are pushing to complete an ambitious loan move for Danny Drinkwater.
The former Leicester City midfielder is surplus to requirements at Chelsea.
Drinkwater, who is now 29, has spent the past season on the sidelines at the Stamford Bridge club.
Brighton boss Graham Potter can promise him regular game time to revive his career, per The Sun.
The Englishman has been at Chelsea for two years, starting only five Premier League games in that time.
