Brighton sign Agyemang on loan from Arsenal as Lee departs
Michelle Agyemang is a regular starter for England's youth teams
- Published
Brighton have signed Arsenal youngster Michelle Agyemang on a season-long loan on the Women's Super League's transfer deadline day.
The 18-year-old trains regularly with Arsenal's first team and was included in their squad for the first round of Women's Champions League qualifying.
Agyemang, a forward for England's youth teams, is considered to be one of Arsenal's most talented academy players but is in search of regular game time.
Brighton have been ambitious this summer and have already signed England international Fran Kirby.
They are also targeting Manchester United forward Nikita Parris on deadline day but would need to pay a fee to bring her in.
Deadline day saw South Korea forward Lee Geum-min leave Brighton as she joined Championship side Birmingham on a two-year deal.
The 30-year-old joined the Seagulls on loan from Manchester City in 2020 and made the move permanent in 2021.
Lee was one of the club's longest-serving players, making 96 appearances in all competitions and scoring 13 goals.
China right-back Li Mengwen also left Brighton on a season-long loan deal to West Ham.
