Although no activity is expected this morning, if the Seagulls do make a breakthrough they have until midday today to secure any new signings - otherwise, they won’t be able to feature until the trip to Bournemouth on Tuesday, January 21.
Potter is believed to be targeting additions during this window, with Glenn Murray linked with an Amex Stadium exit.
