The Brighton winger's arrival was met with delight by Albion fans, who have been anxiously waiting for signings amid off field financial concerns.

Fans wants to see a number of other new faces arrive at the club, with the club understood to be in the market for a striker.

So, with fans hoping for more signings, how does the Albion squad shape up? Here is a full rundown of the squad and where they need to strengthen:

Goalkeepers

Alex Palmer

Josh Griffiths

Ted Cann

David Button

Of all the positions this is probably the safest one for Carlos Corberan right now.

Despite the fact David Button looks to be leaving the club, Albion are in capable hands with the three remaining keepers.

Right backs

Darnell Furlong

Taylor Gardner-Hickman

Ethan Ingram

It is understood that right back isn't a position where Albion are looking to bring anyone in.

Darnell Furlong, who some fans have been critical of over the past season, is first choice with Ethan Ingram providing back up.

Taylor Gardner-Hickman can fill in there, which may be why Albion don't see this is a position that needs filling.

Central defenders

Caleb Taylor
