Brighton agree Viktor Gyokeres transfer from Brommapojkarna

Brighton have agreed a deal to sign Sweden under-19 striker Viktor Gyokeres from IF Brommapojkarna.

Gyokeres, 19, will join the Premier League club's U23 squad when the transfer window opens on Jan. 1.

He has put pen to paper on a two-and-a-half-year contract, which will run until June 2020.

Brighton U23 coach Simon Rusk told the club's official website: "We are delighted that we've moved a big step closer to bringing Viktor into the squad.

"He is someone who has an impressive scoring record for his country at U19 level, and he will add good competition for places in the forward areas.''

Gyokeres was the joint leading scorer in this summer's European Under-19 Championship, scoring three times in three appearances for Sweden.
