Talented German right winger, Brajan Gruda (21) joined Brighton in the summer of 2024 for 31.5 million euros after a big season in Mainz. The 2025 Euro U21 finalist struggled to establish himself with the Seagulls (3 goals and 3 assists in 20 matches). He therefore returned to Germany.

Sensing the right opportunity, RB Leipzig managed to secure his loan until the end of the season and he will have number 10 with his new team. “I’m in great shape, I already know many of my new teammates from the national team and the Bundesliga, and I want to help RB Leipzig get back to Europe. I can’t wait to get on the pitch with the guys and get started. Of course, I wish Albion all the best for the end of the season», Confided the main person concerned.
