22-year-old Leeds United forward Georginio Rutter verbally agrees to join Brighton & Hove Albion for £40m, setting a new Championship record.

Brighton & Hove Albion have reportedly triggered a £40m release clause in Leeds United forward Georginio Rutter's contract, with the 22-year-old verbally agreeing to join Brighton. The move would set a new record for the highest sale for a player in the Championship who has not been relegated. Rutter's departure leaves Leeds United facing squad problems, as they have lost Archie Gray and Crysencio Summerville, and must now address their remaining issues to avoid a backlash from fans.
