Brighton & Hove Albion have completed the signing of midfielder Mathias Normann from Norwegian second division side FK Bodo/Glimt.
Normann, who is a central midfielder, has joined for an undisclosed fee and agreed a three-year contract.
The 21-year-old becomes the Seagulls' fifth signing of the summer after Pascal Gross and Markus Suttner from Ingolstadt, Josh Kerr from Celtic and Mathew Ryan from Valencia.
"We are delighted that we’ve been able to bring Mathias to the club," Brighton manager Chris Hughton told Brightonandhovealbion.com.
"He is a talented and versatile young player, who already has good experience playing regular senior football in Norway.
Normann made 42 appearances and scored three goals in his four years with FK Bodo/Glimt.
He has also represented Norway at youth-team level, for the under-17s and under-18s.
