​DONE DEAL: Hoffenheim loan deal for Brighton striker Locadia

Brighton's Jurgen Locadia has completed a season-long loan move to Bundesliga side Hoffenheim.

The 25 year old Dutch forward arrived on the south coast from PSV Eindhoven in January 2018, for what was then a club record £15m fee.

Head coach Graham Potter said, "Since I arrived, Jurgen's trained really well and been great to work with, but I also appreciate it's been a frustrating time for him ever since he signed for the club for a number of reasons.

"He wants to play week in, week out and this move presents a real opportunity for him to go and get some games and goals in a top European league."
