Brighton Signs Georginio Rutter from Leeds for Record Fee

Posted : 20 August 2024

Brighton & Hove Albion have completed the signing of forward Georginio Rutter from Championship side Leeds United on a five-year deal, both clubs confirmed on Monday. The transfer, with financial details not officially disclosed, is reported to be a club-record deal of £40 million ($51 million) for the 22-year-old Frenchman.

 

Rutter previously joined Leeds from Hoffenheim in 2023 for a club-record fee of up to £36 million ($46 million). During his 18-month tenure at Leeds, he made 66 appearances and scored eight goals. Despite his contributions, Brighton's manager Fabian Hurzeler expressed enthusiasm for Rutter, praising his ability to excite fans and noting his impressive performances in both English and German football.

 

Leeds United acknowledged their efforts to retain Rutter but ultimately respected his decision to move. The club stated that despite attempts to persuade him to stay, Rutter was determined to leave. Brighton will next face Manchester United in their Premier League match on Saturday, following a 3-0 victory over Everton in their season opener.
