Marshall Munetsi set to replace Bissouma at Brighton

Highly rated Zimbabwe and Reims midfielder Marshall Munetsi has caught the eye of Brighton & Hove Albion coach Graham Potter.

 

According to a report in the Daily Mail Munetsi, is on the Seagulls’ radar after impressing in the French top flight.

Graham Potter is keen to replace Yves Bissouma in midfield this summer.

The Zimbabwe international, who turned 26 on Wednesday, has been impressing in the French league where his statistics have compared favourably with some of the best midfielders in the country.

Munetsi’s figures, notably on interceptions and defensive duels won in game, put him ahead of the likes of Aurelien Tchouameni who joined Real Madrid from Monaco earlier this month and Boubacar Kamara who left Marseille for Aston Villa.

Brighton’s analysts are understood to have reported favourably along with scouts and he is under consideration as they look to fill the void left by Yves Bissouma’s departure to Tottenham.

Munetsi, who scored four goals in 22 games last season after coming back from injury, only signed a new contract last month but Reims could be willing to sell for around £7million.
