Brighton have snapped up teenage Norwegian striker Torbjorn Agdestein for a nominal fee from Stord FC.

The 18-year-old, a Norway Under-19 international, has agreed a one-year deal at the Withdean.

"He is a young talent and we were told he is very quick and direct, we looked at him and that information was right," said Seagulls manager Gus Poyet.

"He will initially be part of the development squad but I want him to be pushing for a place in the first-team squad."
