Scotland
midfielder Billy Gilmour has completed a £10m move from Chelsea to Brighton
on Deadline Day.
The 21-year-old, who has 15 caps for his country, signs a four-year deal,
and could make his debut for his new club against Leicester live on Super
Sunday.
Gilmour moved to England from Rangers as a teenager in 2017, and he made his
Premier League debut as an 18-year-old in August 2019, before going on to
feature 10 more times for the club in his first season with the senior side
and being named as Chelsea's Academy Player of the Year.
Just 260 minutes of league action in 2020/21 would then see him loaned to
Norwich last season, where he made 21 starts but was unable to help the
Canaries avoid relegation to the Championship.
He has enjoyed more prominence on the international stage, featuring in
eight of Scotland's qualifying games in their ultimately unsuccessful
campaign to reach the Qatar World Cup, but was named Man of the Match in
Scotland's draw with England during Euro 2020 last year.
