Mark McGhee has confirmed that his priority for the off-season is to obtain more strikers for the Seagulls, and has three foreign players training at the club at the moment...

Brighton manager Mark McGhee has told the official club website that he is searching for new strikers for the club, as the sole striker currently confirmed as available for the first match of the season is youngest Jake Robinson.

Main hitman Knight will be suspended for the first three games of the season, Chris McPhee is likely to be unavailable through injury, and Chris Iwelumo has recently departed the club.

McGhee however revealed that three, unnamed, foreign forwards will be training with the club next week, and that two of them are players with established records.
