Promising forward pens new contract at Brighton
Brighton boss Gus Poyet has revealed that Norwegian striker Torbjorn Agdestein has signed a contract extension with the club.
The 20-year-old linked up with the Seagulls in 2010, with his potential having been spotted early.
He has made just a handful of senior appearances for the club so far, but is considered to be a hot prospect for the future.
He was drafted into the Norway U21 squad for the first time in February and has further cause for celebration after agreeing fresh terms with Brighton.
Versatile
His new deal will keep him with the Championship promotion hopefuls until the summer of 2014.
"Toby has understood what we have been trying to teach him from the beginning and under Luke Williams (development squad coach) he has become a better player," Poyet told the club's
official website.
"He can play anywhere in attack and he knows when to pass the ball, when to keep the ball and when to shoot.
"He's a great prospect for the club and he's produced it for us when he's come on in first-team games. I know that I can count on him."
