Brighton & Hove Albion are engaged in ongoing transfer talks with Coventry City for goalkeeper Carl Rushworth.

Coventry City remain keen to sign Rushworth despite having a club-record £20million bid knocked back by Brighton & Hove Albion.

Coventry City went back to Brighton & Hove Albion with improved terms, only for the Seagulls to turn down the proposal again.

Rushworth won the Championship golden glove award after recording 17 clean sheets on loan at Coventry City last season.

The goalkeeper has one year left on his current deal at Brighton & Hove Albion, although the Seagulls hold an option to extend his contract by a further year.

Brighton & Hove Albion currently have Dutch shot-stopper Bart Verbruggen and veteran goalkeeper Jason Steele on their books, and are 8th in Premier League with 53 points from 38 games, having scored 52 goals and conceded 46.

Coventry City have made one signing so far in the summer window, turning midfielder Frank Onyeka's loan move into a permanent deal, and have reportedly agreed a club-record deal to sign defender Aurele Amenda from Bundesliga side Frankfurt.

As the transfer window continues, Brighton & Hove Albion will be looking to strengthen their squad, with the team currently 32 points behind leaders Arsenal, and will be aiming to improve their recent form of LLWLW.
