Club Brugge have reached an agreement with Brighton to secure a season-long deal for Percy Tau ahead of the upcoming season.
The 25-year-old, who joined Brighton last summer, was loaned to Saint Gilloise in a bid to continue his steady development by enjoying regular playing time.
Tau thoroughly impressed during his spell in the Belgian top flight, as he netted 13 goals and registered as many assists for his team-mates.
As such, the striker has popped up on the radar of Club Brugge, who have been linked with wanting to snap him up for the upcoming season.
And according to French radio station RMC, the Belgian club have reached an agreement with Brighton on a season-long deal for Tau.
It is claimed that Brighton supremo Tony Bloom did not want to sanction a permanent departure for Tau and as such, Club Brugge will not even have the option to buy him on a permanent basis at the end of the loan.
Despite the agreement, Tau is still waiting for his visa to complete the switch to Belgium with Club Brugge.
The South African has a contract with Brighton that expires only during the summer of 2022.
He has earned 16 caps at senior level for his country.
