IF Elfsborg's Terry Yegbe is set to leave the club, with Crystal Palace and Fulham leading the transfer race. The club hopes to receive a transfer fee of around £6 million. It is reported that Crystal Palace, Fulham and Sheffield United have a greater interest in Yegbe than Brighton, who have previously followed him.
Yegbe was a key player for IF Elfsborg when they reached the group stage of the Europa League last season. He played in all eight matches and was part of the team that won against Roma, Qarabag and Nice. He was also part of the team that played against Tottenham, Galatasaray, Athletic Club and AZ.
Yegbe has previously played for Ghana and was part of the national team's match against Niger in November. He was however not part of the team when they defeated Chad and Madagascar in March.
It is reported that Bayern München are interested in IF Elfsborg's goalkeeper Bart Verbruggen. This could mean that Brighton will have to look for a new goalkeeper in the summer.
IF Elfsborg are currently 7th in the Allsvenskan table with 21 points after 15 matches. They have scored 20 goals and conceded 18. They are 17 points behind the leaders Sirius and have their next match away against Sirius on October 18.
