Saudi Pro League club Al Nassr have approached Brighton & Hove Albion with a formal offer to recruit winger Kaoru Mitoma. The proposal submitted to the Premier League side for Japan international Mitoma is worth €65million but has been formally rejected.

Al-Nassr are ready to offer a package worth $112 million for Kaoru Mitoma after seeing an opening bid rejected by Brighton. The initial offer, worth $67 million, was rejected by the Seagulls but Mitoma is the first choice at the Saudi Pro League side as they look to strengthen their options on the wing.

Kaoru Mitoma's potential move to Al Nassr will not take place after Brighton made it clear they would not sell the player at any price according to BBC's Simon Stone. The Seagulls had rejected a bid worth around £54m on Thursday, and there were reports suggesting the Saudi Pro League side were set for a second, larger bid.
