Latest Fantasy Rumors
Brighton showing interest
Brighton are interested in signing Wieffer in the summer transfer window, according to The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
Brighton are looking to bolster their midfield, especially if Pascal Gross departs the team in the summer, and Wieffer is one of the top options the team is looking at. He wasn't part of the Netherlands team for the Euros due to an injury, but at his best, the 24-year-old is one of the most consistent under-25 midfielders in Europe's second-tier leagues.
