The Bundesliga team FC St. Pauli is poised to receive a significant transfer fee if their head coach Fabian Hürzeler joins Premier League team Brighton & Hove Albion. Reports from "Hamburger Abendblatt" suggest the clubs have reached a deal in the millions, with estimates placing the sum around 7.5 million euros, potentially rising if Brighton makes it to a European cup competition. This would be a record fee for the 2. Bundesliga champions. The announcement of the move is anticipated imminently, and it's been speculated that Hürzeler will ink a deal extending to 2027 at Brighton.
