Brighton have become well known in recent years for making signings who then go on and become superstars and ultimately bring in big money for the club.
Recent seasons have seen the likes of Alexis Mac Allister and Moises Caicedo do just that.
However, while Brighton have that impressive scouting network, they could now face a battle with Arsenal to sign the next young talent on their list.
And that young talent is teenage Ivory Coast winger, Bazoumana Touré.
Arsenal keen on Hammarby winger Bazoumana Touré
According to a report from The Mirror, Arsenal have joined a number of Premier League clubs who are keen on signing Toure.
The 18-year-old is still an emerging talent over in Sweden but has established himself with Hammarby already, scoring six goals in 16 appearances last term.
The Swedish side are believed to want at least £5m to let Toure go and given Premier League riches, that is pocket change.
Arsenal are one of the teams keen on the youngster, with Manchester United and Brighton also looking heavily into signing him.
Arsenal building for the future
There’s no question that Arsenal are looking the business right now but they obviously have one eye on the future as well with links to players like Toure.
Internally, they have young superstars like Ethan Nwaneri and Myles Lewis-Skelly emerging from the ranks to make an impression.
But like any big club, looking externally is equally as important and someone like Toure is obviously catching the eye early on in his career.
Of course, Toure is very much a raw talent but given the likes of Brighton have him on the radar, you’d suggest he has a big future.
