Brighton has rejected a whopping £ 75 million bid from Al-Nassr for Kaoru Mitoma.
The Saudi side saw an opening bid of £ 54 million on Thursday striked back before she returned with their eye-watery offer for the 27-year-old.
But the seagulls were determined to insist that the winger was not for sale with Mitoma, not like from Europe.
The Japanese international has become a top star for Brighton since his arrival at the south coast in 2021.
The winger joined the Japanese side Kawasaki Frontale for a reported £ 2.7 million then.
And since then he has made 92 performances for the Premier League club.
Mitoma, who wrote a university thesis about the dribbling of his opponents, is in great form this season for the side of Fabian Hurzeler.
In 23 Premier League performances he scored five goals and registered three assists.
Al-Nassr also strives for the signature of another Premier League star.
Jhon Duran van Aston Villa seems to be about to move from £ 65 million to the current employers of Cristiano Ronaldo.
