Albion striker Viktor Gyokeres has left the club to join Championship side Coventry for an undisclosed fee.
The 23-year-old joined Albion in January 2018 but only made eight appearances for them during that time, with four coming in the Carabao Cup and the other four in the FA Cup.
His only goal for the Seagulls came in September in their 4-0 win over Portsmouth at the Amex in the Carabao Cup second round.
He then joined Championship side Swansea on a season-long loan in October.
But after scoring just two goals in 13 appearances and only making nine starts, Gyokeres saw his loan cut short in January and he then joined fellow Championship side Coventry.
In his 19 appearances for the Sky Blues, he scored three goals and has now made the switch to Mark Robins’ side permanent.
Albion techncial dorector Dan Ahworth said: "This represents a good move for Viktor, as well as both clubs. He’s spent the last two years out on loan, but this gives him the chance to really settle in one place and play regularly at a really high standard, which at 23 is paramount for his own development.
“Coventry were impressed with the impact he made in his relatively short time there last season and that can be an added confidence boost for Viktor. We wish him all the best for the future.”
