Brighton and Hove Albion manager Chris Hughton is keen on bringing Liverpool midfielder Kevin Stewart to the Amex Stadium, according to reports.

The Telegraph claim the Seagulls boss wants to make Stewart the club's first signing of the summer as Brighton look to strengthen for the Premier League.

The ex-Tottenham trainee joined Liverpool in 2014, with the 23-year-old making nine appearances for the Reds this season.

The defensive midfielder has been valued by Liverpool at £10m, according to the Telegraph.

Derby County are reportedly after Maritimo midfielder Alex Soares.

Portuguese newspaper O Jogo claim the Rams want to bring the 26-year-old to England, but are battling it oit with Genoa for his signature.

Soares is out of contract at the end of the season and will join his next club on a Bosman.

The midfielder has made 20 appearances for Maritimo in the Portuguese top flight this season.

West Brom are believed to be weighing up a move for Nottingham Forest defender Joe Worrall.

The Mirror claims Baggies boss Tony Pulis is on the look out for a successor to long-serving defender Gareth McAuley, with Worrall at the top of the list.

McAuley signed a new one-year deal for next term after a strong season at the Hawthorns, but - at 38 - will likely retire at the end of next year.

Worrall has made 19 league starts for the Reds this term and has been a bright light in an otherwise painful season at the City Ground.

Finally, Cardiff City are keen to sign Senegalese midfielder Sidy Sarr in the summer, according to reports.

HITC claim the Bluebirds are interested in the 20-year-old, who currently plies his trade at Belgian outfit KV Kortrijk.

Sarr joined the Jupiler League side after helping his Under 20 international side to the World Cup semi-finals in New Zealand in 2015.

And he could now be set to switch one Vincent Tan-owned side for another, with Cardiff interested in the midfielder.
