Mitoma to stay at Brighton amid Bayern interest | OneFootball

Bayern Munich have been linked with a host of attacking players this summer, including Brighton & Hove Albion's Kaoru Mitoma.

However, according to Sky Sports, the 28-year-old wants to stay at Brighton, who are prepared to offer him a new and improved contract beyond 2027.

“We try to keep our best players,” said Brighton & Hove Albion boss Fabian Hürzeler in an interview with Sky Sports.

"Mitoma played a great last season but it's only because we as a club worked together. Then you can shine as individuals. It's the most important that all the players try to understand that. Mitoma understood it last season.

"I'm really looking forward to seeing him back [on Thursday for pre-season]. That's the plan. We look forward to continue working with him, to try to improve him because I still think his limit is not reached yet.

“That's our job, his job, the job of the whole club to get the best potential out of the players and that's what we're looking for in the pre-season. I'm sure he will be an important part of us.”
