Premier League side Brighton are set to complete their move for Carlos Baleba.

The midfielder is ready to join the club from French side Lille in a big money deal.

Brighton are signing Baleba with a view to taking the spot vacated by Moises Caicedo, who signed for Chelsea.

Per The Mail, a deal of 24 million has been agreed between Lille and Brighton.

Baleba is ready to have his medical, finalize the last details of the agreement, and sign a five year contract.

Brighton are likely to spend more money before the transfer window closes, given the sum they received for Caicedo from the Blues.
