SharePascal Struijk was a mainstay for Leeds United, but the defender has now joined Premier League rivals Brighton for a reported £20m fee.Brighton have completed the signing of defender Pascal Struijk, who has joined from Leeds United.Struijk has signed a five-year deal at Brighton, who have reportedly paid £20m to secure the centre-back.The 26-year-old joined Leeds from Ajax in 2018 and made 196 appearances for the club across all competitions.Struijk made 34 appearances in the Premier League last term, as Leeds secured an impressive 14th-place finish in their first season back in the big time since 2022-23.However, with just a year left on his contract, Leeds elected to cash in, and Struijk now heads to Brighton, seemingly as a replacement for his compatriot Jan Paul van Hecke, who joined Tottenham for £52m."Pascal is exactly the sort of profile we wanted to add to the squad this summer, in that he's got good Premier League experience and has his peak years ahead of him," Brighton head coach Fabian Hurzeler said."He really showcased what he's capable of last season – great defensive actions while comfortable on the ball – with his style well-suited to ours."He is also a leader, having worn the captain's armband at times for Leeds last season. He is an excellent addition to the group, and I am looking forward to working with him."Brighton have reportedly lodged a bid for Spurs youngster Luka Vuskovic, too, as the Seagulls look to restructure their centre-back options.Leeds, meanwhile, are reportedly set to sign Harry Wilson as a free agent.Wilson scored 10 goals and provided seven assists in the Premier League for Fulham last season.Pascal Struijk was a mainstay for Leeds United, but the defender has now joined Premier League rivals Brighton for a reported £20m fee.Brighton have completed the signing of defender Pascal Struijk, who has joined from Leeds United.Struijk has signed a five-year deal at Brighton, who have reportedly paid £20m to secure the centre-back.The 26-year-old joined Leeds from Ajax in 2018 and made 196 appearances for the club across all competitions.Struijk made 34 appearances in the Premier League last term, as Leeds secured an impressive 14th-place finish in their first season back in the big time since 2022-23.However, with just a year left on his contract, Leeds elected to cash in, and Struijk now heads to Brighton, seemingly as a replacement for his compatriot Jan Paul van Hecke, who joined Tottenham for £52m."Pascal is exactly the sort of profile we wanted to add to the squad this summer, in that he's got good Premier League experience and has his peak years ahead of him," Brighton head coach Fabian Hurzeler said."He really showcased what he's capable of last season – great defensive actions while comfortable on the ball – with his style well-suited to ours."He is also a leader, having worn the captain's armband at times for Leeds last season.
