​DONE DEAL: Blackpool sign Brighton striker Emmerson

Blackpool have secure the signing of Zak Emmerson from Brighton.

They have also managed to snag Callum Wright from Leicester City.

The two have joined on three-year contracts, with the fees in both instances undisclosed at this stage.

Both players have the option for a further year in their contracts, which can be taken up by Blackpool at any stage.

Emmerson is an 18-year-old attacker who spent last season with Blackpool's youth team on loan.

He netted 20 goals in 26 games, impressing enough to earn a permanent deal.

The England youth international made his league debut at the age of 15 for Oldham Athletic in 2019.
