Mitoma Chooses Brighton Commitment
**Brighton Forward Eyes Long-Term Commitment**
Brighton & Hove Albion forward Kaoru Mitoma has indicated a strong desire to extend his contract with the club, which currently lasts until 2025. The Japanese international has been a key player under manager Fabian Hurzeler, who has highlighted Mitoma’s importance to the squad and his potential for further development.
### **Management’s Strategy**
Brighton is focused on retaining valuable team members like Mitoma, having refused offers from clubs like Al Nassr. Manager Hurzeler stated, “We aim to maintain our top talent,” emphasizing the priority to nurture Mitoma’s growth for future successes.
### **Significant Transfers and Tactical Moves**
Brighton’s activity in the transfer market continues as Joao Pedro leaves for Chelsea in a high-profile $82 million deal, aimed at providing Pedro opportunities for greater exposure in the Champions League. Meanwhile, Olivier Boscagli’s arrival from PSV Eindhoven adds depth and versatility to Brighton’s lineup, reflecting the club’s intent to build a more competitive squad.
### **Future Objectives**
The club is strategically balancing player retention with targeted acquisitions. Boscagli’s integration into the squad is expected to bolster team performance, as the club remains active in the market to strengthen its squad for the coming season.
