Brighton have failed with a new offer for Reading defender Liam Moore.

The Mirror says Brighton have had a third bid for Liam Moore rejected by Reading.

The Seagulls upped their latest offer for the Royals defender to £8m including add ons.

But the proposal was quickly knocked back by Reading who are holding out for £10m.Former Leicester defender Moore was Reading's player of the season in a difficult campaign for the Berkshire club and played every single minute in the Championship.

And Brighton boss Chris Hughton remains determined to land the 25 year-old with a fourth offer now being considered.
