Danny Welbeck: Brighton complete signing of former Arsenal and Manchester United striker on one-year deal

Brighton have completed the signing of free agent Danny Welbeck following his release from Watford.

The former Manchester United and England striker, 29, has put pen-to-paper on a one-year contract at the Amex.

The experienced forward managed just three goals in 20 appearances for the Hornets as they were relegated from the Premier League last term.

Watford confirmed earlier this month that they had reached a mutual agreement with Welbeck to terminate his contract.

The Red Devils academy graduate was earning a reported £100,000-a-week at Vicarage Road, a figure the club were unable to continue paying out upon their return to the Championship.

“We are delighted to have Danny joining us. He will complement our existing striking options,” Seagulls head coach Graham Potter said.
