Brighton boss Micky Adams has agreed to sign Leeds United midfielder Bradley Johnson on loan.

The 21-year-old, who will remain at the Withdean Stadium until 3 January, is expected to feature in Tuesday's League One encounter with Leicester City.

Adams told Albion's official website: "We're delighted Bradley has agreed to join us on loan until the new year.

"He's a six-foot-plus attacking midfielder who can play either centrally or on the wing and is also capable of scoring a goal.

"With Glenn (Murray) and Nicky (Forster) injured, our priority has always been to bring in a striker, and it remains so - but that does not prohibit us from improving other areas of the team and I'm sure Bradley's arrival will improve the squad."
