Northampton Town have signed midfielder Samy Chouchane on loan from Brighton and Hove Albion.

The 21-year-old French born Tunisian youth international will join Brighton a season-long loan, with Chouchane’s arrival seeing him confirmed as the Cobblers’ 11th new signing of the 2024 summer window.

Chouchane has previously won 10 caps for the Tunisian under-20 national team and has played games for Brighton’s youth team in the EFL Trophy.

This will be Chouchane’s first loan move to an EFL club, with the move seeing Chouchane become the latest midfielder to make a loan move from Brighton to Northampton after the Cobblers borrowed Marc Leonard for the last two seasons.

Northampton manager Jon Brady told the club’s official website, “As supporters will know, we have an excellent relationship with Brighton, there is a lot of trust there and we thank them for allowing us to add Samy to the squad.

“He has risen through the levels at Brighton to be involved with the first team squad and we have been impressed with his attitude, his ability and his progression.

“We look forward to welcoming him in to the squad.”
