Brighton and Hove Albion and their top flight rivals continue their preparations for the new Premier League season.

The Seagulls are currently in America for the Premier League Summer Series and last night beat Brentford 2-0 in a pre-season friendly in Atlanta.

New arrival Simon Adingra impressed with two goals against the Bees but there were also encouraging displays from £30m record signing Joao Pedro and midfielder Mo Dahoud.

It's been a busy transfer window so far as the Seagulls remain in talks with Chelsea for defender Levi Colwill and Ecuador ace Moises Caicedo potentially going in the other direction. Chelsea's current bid for Caicedo stands at £80m but Albion are holding out for £100m.

Earlier in the window Brighton lost Alexis Mac Allister to Liverpool for an initial fee of £35m but they have boosted their defence with the £15m capture of Igor Julio from Fiorentina.

Elsewhere there has been plenty of activity across the Premier League with Arsenal's £105m signing of Declan Rice from West Ham perhaps the most eye-catching.
