Leeds United have agreed to sell Pascal Struijk to Brighton in a £20million deal.
The 26-year-old left-footed centre-back is a popular figure at Elland Road but Leeds had been struggling to tie him down to a new deal.
Brighton are still to formalise their bid but matters were verbally agreed on Saturday.
Leeds had proposed a new contract, but Struijk wanted a fresh challenge and they could ill afford to lose him for nothing next summer.
