Brighton & Hove Albion chase Ryan Harley signature

Brighton & Hove Albion are close to agreeing a deal for Swansea City midfielder Ryan Harley.

The 26-year-old joined the Swans from Exeter City in January before being loaned back to the Grecians for the remainder of the campaign.

Harley has not made a single first-team appearance for newly-promoted Swansea since his transfer, and is reportedly keen on a switch to the Amex stadium.

Brighton manager Gustavo Poyet tried to sign the player before he made the switch to the Liberty Stadium but has now agreed a deal to land his long-term target, according to Sky Sports News.

Harley is expected to travel to the South Coast tomorrow for discussions over a potential transfer.
