Exclusive: Shrewsbury Town interested in young Brighton midfielder
Brighton midfielder Jack Hinchy is attracting interest from Shrewsbury Town as they work to strengthen their squad ahead of deadline day, the Shropshire Star understands.
The 21-year-old has played at the Meadow already this campaign when Town drew 0-0 with Brighton under-21s in the EFL Trophy.
Hinchy came through the academy at Stockport County, making his debut for the Hatters in their FA Cup tie against West Ham coming on as an 86th-minute substitute.
In 2021, he joined Brighton's academy, and he made his senior debut for the Seagulls, coming on for Tariq Lamptey as an 80th-minute substitute.
So far this season, he has made five appearances for Brighton under-21s as well as one appearance in their FA Cup win at Stoke City.
And now Town are keen to sign the youngster as they seek to bolster their midfield options ahead of the window closing.
Hinchy is expected to play tonight for Brighton under-21s against Wycombe.
