Brighton manager Chris Hughton has said to the fans the club will spend their money wisely this summer.
The club's chairman Tony Bloom has made sure that funds are available to the team that just survived their reckless season last year after finishing one place above the relegation zone. The money will need to be used to rebuild the squad so that the club will have a much more successful season, come September.
Brighton have been linked to a player which looks like he may be their first signing of the summer. Rumours started near the start of June about Iranian international Alireza Jahanbakhsh, who is currently playing for NEC Nijmagan. The club will have to pay a reported £1.5 million for his services.
Hughton told The Angus: "Yes, there are funds available. What I am conscious of and what we have to be conscious of as a club is Financial Fair Play,
"We also have to be conscious that in anything we do we want value-for-money. I don't think it's right and appropriate that you are splashing out willy-nilly.
"It has to be done in a structured way and a value-for-money way but there are funds available and it's about how we can use them."
