Brighton striker Glenn Murray close to Watford loan move

The Brighton and Hove Independent understands an agreement with the 36-year-old is close, with reports also suggesting he's completed a medical at the club who were relegated from the Premier League last season.

Last February the Brighton striker Glenn Murray signed a one-year contract extension with the Seagulls to run to June 2021.

Appearances were limited for Murray last season and his only goal in the league came during the 3-3 draw at West Ham.

Murray has scored 111 goals for the Albion in 285 appearances during two different spells. he has also played for Crystal Palace, Reading and Bournemouth.

Murray first signed for Albion in 2008 and won the League One title with the club in 2011.

He returned in 2016 and helped Chris Hughton's Brighton gain promotion to the Premier League.

Murray is 14 goals behind Brighton's all-time leading scorer Tommy Cook.
