The Seagulls have already sold defender Jan Paul van to Tottenham for £52m but more are likely to follow as Fabian Hurzeler tweaks his squad for the upcoming Premier League and Uefa Conference League campaign.
A number of Albion stars have been linked with moves away with Manchester United once again targeting Carlos Baleba and Bayaern Munich eyeing Bart Verbruggen.
Those two are definitely worth keeping a close eye on but here's six players most likely to be on the move.
Carl Rushworth
Much will depend on Verbruggen's situation but if the Dutchman stays for another season then Rushworth may well look to leave. He excelled on on loan at Coventry last term and Frank Lampard's team are keen to make the move permanent.
They have reportedly bid around £20m but Brighton will likely demand a little more for the 25-year-old who is contracted until 2027.
Igor Julio

The Brazilian defender spent part of last season on loan at West Ham. He returned in January but didn't feature at all for Hurzeler in the Premier League.
Brighton have already added Pascal Struijk and Michael Svoboda this window and they are also expected to smash their transfer record to sign Croatian Luka Vuskovic from Tottenham. Igor, 28, has a year remaining on his deal.
Eiran Cashin
The former Derby man could also be on the move this summer. The Irishman had loans last season at Blackburn and Birmingham and it's unlikely he will feature for Hurzeler in the Premier League this coming season.
A loan could be an option but the club and Cashin may favour a permanent switch. The 24-year-old is contracted to 2030.
Matt O'Riley
For one reason or another, it's never really worked out for O'Riley at Brighton. The former Celtic midfielder started the first two matches of last season in the PL but was then loaned to Marseille and performed pretty well for the French club under Roberto De Zerbi.
Has previously been linked with Everton, Fulham, Roma, Atalanta and Juventus. Contracted until 2029 and Brighton will hope to recoup the £25m they paid for him.
Facundo Buonanotte

The Argentina playmaker had two nightmare loans at Chelsea and Leeds and the 21-year-old will be determined not to waste another season. A very talented player but may the lack the physicality Hurzeler demands to be a regular in the PL.
His former club Rosario Central are reportedly keen to take him back to Argentina along with River Plate and Boca Juniors.
Evan Ferguson
The Ireland striker started to show some encouraging signs during his loan at Roma last term, until an ankle injury ended his season early. Ferguson is still only 21 and he will need a seriously good pre-season to convince Hurzeler that he warrants a regular spot.
Danny Welbeck remains the main man with Greek duo Stefanos Tzimas and Charalampos Kostoulas both pushing. Ferguson and his representatives will want regular football next term. He is contracted until 2029 and a problem from Brighton's perspective is that his transfer value has dipped in the last 18 months.
