*A Key Addition for Brighton*

Chakvetadze, who has contributed 9 goals this season, is expected to strengthen Brighton’s midfield. His creative skills and goal-scoring ability will undoubtedly enhance the team’s attacking prowess. The Georgian midfielder’s arrival is seen as a key signing for Fabian Hurzeler’s side.
