Liverpool defender Joe Gomez being tracked by Premier League new boys Brighton
Bournemouth and Celtic are also watching the former Charlton starlet's situation with a view to a summer move
LIVERPOOL starlet Joe Gomez is a target for new Premier League rivals Brighton.
The 20-year-old England youth-team star only moved to Anfield in 2015 for £3.5million but a knee injury has limited his first-team contribution.
The centre-back played just three FA Cup games last season with the defeat to Wolves proving to be a disappointment.
The defender only played seven times the previous campaign before he suffered a cruciate ligament injury playing for England Under-21s in October 2015.
Bournemouth have also looked at Gomez as Eddie Howe looks to strengthen his side.
Howe wants to sign Gomez for £10m or take him on loan for the next campaign.

And there is also competition from north of the border where Brendan Rodgers – who was the Kop boss when Gomez joined – wants to lure him to Celtic.
