Albion could make another signing from South America.
They are interested in Alan Velasco, a highly-regarded attacking player at Independiente.
Reports from Argentina suggest that an offer of around £7 million has been made by the Seagulls.
There is no confirmation - either way - of that from closer to home.
But The Argus can confirm that the 18-year-old is among players of interest to them and has been for some time.
Velasco can play wide on either side, as an attacking central midfielder or just off a main striker and is seen as one of his nation’s brightest attacking prospects.
He has believed to have attracted interest from several clubs in Europe.
