As The Pitch Prospect has learned, Brighton remain interested in Leicester midfielder Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and are considering a new offer.
The Seagulls attempted to sign the £30 million Dewsbury-Hall in January but were unable to agree a deal with the Foxes.

However, their interest could flare up again in the summer transfer window with a new offer ahead of next season.
Dewsbury-Hall joined Leicester’s academy at the age of eight and worked his way into the first team, making his debut in 2020.
The midfielder has made 129 appearances for the club in all competitions and was instrumental in winning the league title.
He scored 12 goals and provided 14 assists, securing the team’s immediate return to the Premier League.
Dewsbury-Hall was in the Championship team of the season and was also voted player of the season by Leicester fans and players.
His current contract does not expire until 2027, so the Foxes should be able to collect a large transfer fee in the event of a sale.
The Pitch Prospect had previously reported that another club, Tottenham, had their eye on him.
If Dewsbury-Hall stays, he will play under Steve Cooper next season as he became Leicester’s replacement for Enzo Maresca, who moved to Chelsea.

If he were to move from St. Pauli to Brighton, he would work under the new head coach Fabian Hurzeler.
The Pitch Prospect has learned that he is keen to keep both Deniz Undav and Pascal Gross at the club – Stuttgart want to exercise their £20million option to buy the former, while Borussia Dortmund have their eye on the latter.
Ibrahim Osman is set to be the Seagulls’ first signing after agreeing a move for him from FC Nordsjaelland in the summer for a reported £16 million.
Brighton said goodbye to Adam Lallana earlier this month, who returned to Southampton on a one-year deal.
