Brighton reportedly had scouts in attendance at Bodo/Glimt’s 2-2 draw with Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League to watch Norwegian winger Jens Petter Hauge.

The 26-year-old has been in impressive form this season, scoring three goals in five starts in the Champions League, and providing four assists in qualifying. He also scored in his side’s 3-1 NM-Cup victory.

According to TEAMtalk, Brighton, Crystal Palace and Brentford all sent scouts to watch the forward in action last week, and they all would’ve liked what they saw with Hauge scoring a 75th-minute equaliser against the German giants.
