Napoli and Brighton have opened talks over a move for Gilmour, with an initial fee of €14.25m plus €4.75m in add-ons agreed.
Gilmour came through the Chelsea academy, made 22 senior appearances in all competitions and joined Brighton in the summer of 2022, where he has made 60 appearances.
The 23-year-old midfielder has signed a five-year deal with Napoli until 2029 and will link up with Antonio Conte, who has known Gilmour since he was a youngster during Conte’s time in charge at Stamford Bridge.
Gilmour becomes Napoli’s second midfielder on deadline day after Scott McTominay arrived from Manchester United, and the pair are also Scotland team-mates. ( wilson88 )
