Brighton boss Dean Wilkins has admitted that Bas Savage will be leaving the club in January after the striker rejected the offer of a new Seagulls contract.
The 25-year-old has spent the last 12 months at the Withdean Stadium, scoring ten times in 42 appearances following his transfer from Gillingham.
Wilkins told Brighton's official website: "He's refused our offer, so he'll be moving on.
"It's going to be a blow, but we have to make sure that we move on and that whoever comes in does an equal, if not a better, job.
"It's disappointing. He's been made a good offer by us, but the decision's been made now."
