QPR midfielder Bright Osayi-Samuel’s move to Club Brugge could be put in doubt after Premier League clubs and one from the Championship reportedly entered the race to sign him.

Brighton boss defiant on White future
Brighton and Hove Albion boss Graham Potter has reiterated his stance on Leeds United loanee Ben White, and insists the youngster remains in his plans for next season.

Several top flight clubs, including champions Liverpool, have been mentioned as possible suitors this summer, and it seems Leeds themselves haven't given up hope on securing a permanent deal.

He replied: "That he's contracted with us and that he's on loan at Leeds.
“He's our player. It's fantastic he's had this year with Leeds. Everybody won in that Ben got some great experience. Leeds achieved their goal of promotion.
"But we rate him highly.”
