According to BuLi News, Brighton & Hove Albion had a €45 million bid for Bayer Leverkusen’s Malik Tillman rejected on Monday, before completing a late move for VfB Stuttgart’s Chema Andrés.
The Seagulls instead sealed a deal worth around €23 million for the midfielder from Stuttgart.
Tillman remained at Leverkusen.
Leverkusen signed the USMNT international from PSV in the summer of 2025 for a reported €35 million.
Since arriving, the 24-year-old has registered eight goals and one assist in 44 appearances for Die Werkself.
