Jeremy Sarmiento has completed a permanent switch from Brighton to Middlesbrough for an undisclosed fee.

The 24-year-old - who played 21 times for Albion - spent the second half of last season on loan with the Championship club.

Technical director Mike Cave said: "Jeremy has spent the last few years out on loan, so this represents a great opportunity for him to settle in one place.

"He is another success story of a player joining our under-21s and making the step up to men's football at a very good level. We wish him the best of luck for the future."
