Brighton Snap Mahmoud Dahoud On Free Transfer From Dortmund

Brighton Snap Mahmoud Dahoud On Free Transfer From Dortmund

Mahmoud Dahoud is joining Brighton and Hove Albion following the end of his Borussia Dortmund contract.

Dahoud has signed a four-year contract to move to the AMEX stadium as a free agent.

The Syrian-born Germany international spent six seasons at the Signal Iduna Park after joining from Borussia Monchengladbach in the summer of 2017.

Dahoud made 141 appearances in total for Dortmund but a shoulder injury restricted him to just 10 games last season.

The 27-year-old will be Brighton's third summer signing after James Milner and Joao Pedro.

Seagulls head coach Roberto De Zerbi told his club’s website: “I’m excited to have Mahmoud in my team.

“I wanted him when I was at Sassuolo and I’m sure he is going to be a top player for us.”

Brighton technical director David Weir said: “We’re delighted to bring Mahmoud to the club, his quality and ability will really add to the options available to Roberto.

“He’s a quality player, he’s got lots of experience playing at a high level in Germany with great experience in Europe too.”

Dahoud has two caps for the German national team.

Brighton will play Europa League football next season following a sixth place finish in the Premier League last term.
