Premier League newcomers Brighton and Hove Albion have been scouting Torino midfielder Afriyie Acquah recently.

It is believed that the club is interested in bringing the 25-year-old midfielder to the Amex Stadium and has been active in watching him play for the Turin based outfit.

A host of other clubs are also tracking the Ghanian’s progress, but would be open to moving to England if Chris Hughton’s Seagulls do make an offer to bring him to the club in January.

The midfielder had edged very close to joining Championship side Birmingham City this past summer in a deal that would have costed around 7.5 million euros, but the move fell through very late in the transfer window.

Acquah has fallen out of favor at the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino based side this season, making only four appearances, out of which only a single one has been a start. Even last season, the Ghanaian was not used too regularly by Sinisa Mihajlovic and his situation is attracting interest.
