Brighton make Carlos Soler enquiry amid Villarreal talks | OneFootball

Brighton and Hove Albion retain their interest in Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Carlos Soler (28), however, Villarreal have made more concrete steps to sign the Spaniard, according to Marc Mechenoua.

Brighton’s interest in Soler is long-standing and the player will be available this summer. West Ham United have opted against making his loan move to the club permanent, whilst there is no place for him at PSG. He, like the other returning loanees, will be shipped out of the Parc des Princes once again this summer.

A return to the Premier League could potentially be on the cards for the midfielder. Mechenoua understands that Brighton, who have previously shown an interest in the Spain international, have made an enquiry. However, a deal that would see him join Villarreal and return to his native Spain is more advanced. As per L’Équipe, talks with the La Liga side, who next season will play in the UEFA Champions League, are underway.
