JAKARTA - Liverpool midfielder Adam Lallana moved to Brighton & Hove Albion on a free transfer. Lallana agreed a three-year contract with The Seagulls, who this season finished 15th.
Lallana, who is out of contract and has played 34 caps for England, continues to be sidelined at Anfield during this season's Premier League title race. From long ago, it was expected that he would join Brighton.
The 32-year-old joined Liverpool in 2014 after shining for Southampton.
"Adam is a really interesting purchase for us, a person who I am sure will make the fans look forward to him playing and when things start to return to normal," manager Graham Potter told Antara, Tuesday, July 28.

"Getting his experience and quality on the pitch will be a great addition for us, and I know he will be a great role model for our young players in this squad," concluded Potter.
Lallana is the second player to leave Anfield after Croatia defender Dejan Lovren to move to Zenit St Petersburg.
During six years in the uniform of the Reds, Lallana played 128 times and contributed 18 goals. The midfielder who was born in 1988 contributed to the 2019-20 Premier League trophy, the 2018-19 Champions League, the 2019 European Super Cup and the 2019 Club World Cup.
