Hoffenheim are chasing after Brighton's Aaron Connolly as they look to get more young talents from the Premier League.

Connolly has nine goals in 10 league games for the Brighton under-23s this campaign.

The 18-year-old has a new contract offer from the club, but he has not signed.

Sky Sports suggests that Connolly is one of many young players that Hoffenheim are targeting in the Premier League.

They know that players have limited chances to play for their Premier League clubs, with some considering moves abroad for first team action.

It is similar to how Jadon Sancho left Manchester City for Borussia Dortmund in the summer.
