Jaouen Hadjam set for Brighton move from Young Boys | OneFootball

Jaouen Hadjam has been kept out of the firing line in Switzerland amid an anticipated switch to Albion. According to TheArgus.co.uk, the 23-year-old full-back is widely believed to be heading to Brighton in a £10 million deal from Young Boys.

Hadjam was named on the bench and remained unused as Young Boys beat Vaduz 4-2 in the league on Sunday. He had started their previous matches.

Head coach Gerardo Seoane had questioned whether the Algeria international would stay fully focused while close to a possible transfer.

After the game he spent 15 minutes signing autographs and posing for photos with supporters. While he often takes time with fans, on this occasion it was read as a farewell.

Predominantly a left-back, Hadjam can also play on the right. He featured for Nantes before moving to Young Boys, helping them secure the 2023-24 Swiss title. He has 21 senior caps.

At Albion, Ferdi Kadioglu excelled at left-back last season and was named player of the year, and he can also operate on the right. Maxim De Cuyper is another option at left-back, although he has arguably looked more at home further forward in the Premier League so far.
