Brighton could be set for an incredible summer swoop that will take the league by storm.

The Premier League minnows, who are playing in Europe this season, are closing in on a Barcelona starlet.

Brighton are nearing the surprise loan signing of Ansu Fati from the Catalan giants.

Per The Mail, Fati will join on a straight loan for the rest of the season, with no option to buy.

Barca want the player to get regular game time to find his best form, while Brighton get a top class attacker to join their squad.

Fati scored seven goals in 36 games for the Catalan club last season, as they won La Liga.
