A translation from the link a couple of posts up.

Brighton & Hove Albion is about to strengthen itself with Jürgen Locadia. The striker comes, when the last folds are smoothed out, for around sixteen million euros from PSV. English sources confirm this to VI.
The 24-year old Locadia is currently recovering from an upper leg injury that will keep him on the sidelines for a few weeks. For Brighton, however, that is no reason not to transfer. The PSV is expected on Friday in England for a medical examination.
PSV reached an agreement with Brighton in the last few days about a transfer fee of around sixteen million euros. The Eindhoven team already had a new striker earlier this month with Maximiliano Romero, allowing a departure from Locadia with the current group of players.
With his transfer to Brighton, the number sixteen of the Premier League, Locadia still gets his desired transfer to England. Last summer, the attacker wanted to leave for Wolverhampton Wanderers, but at the last moment PSV decided to let that transfer down.
For PSV, the transfer from Locadia comes at a particularly good time. The leader of the Eredivisie had to close a gap of some five million euros due to the early elimination in Europe, something that has immediately succeeded. Locadia, this season good for nine goals in fifteen Eredivisie-duels, meets his former teammate Davy Pröpper at Brighton, which last year PSV earned thirteen million

In terms of strikers this sounds like the most reliable rumour we've had so far this window.

'PSV and Brighton agree on transfer Locadia, Friday medical examination'

January 18, 2018

According to both De Telegraaf, Voetbal International and the Eindhovens Dagblad, Jurgen Locadia leaves immediately for Brighton, England. The English club wanted him already last summer. With the transition, according to the Eindhovens Dagblad, 16 million would be involved.

He has been out with a hamstring injury since early December.

Has 9 goals and 7 assists this season.

Fits the bill in terms of price, age, attributes, wages.

Rumour credibility: 8/10.

The striker (24) of PSV makes the switch to Brighton & Hove Albion. Locadia is medically approved in England on Friday and draws, if everything goes well, a contract up to mid 2022 or 2023. The Eindhoveners receive an amount between 15 and 20 million euros for the striker.

Spectacular

The spectacular transition from the 24-year-old striker has accelerated in recent days. Brighton hoped to Locadia on August 31st, but then PSV-Trainer Phillip Cameron personally a stick for a last-minute-transfer. The current number 16 in the Premier League is Locadia then continue to follow closely and let this month immediately know to go far for the neo-International. The clubs have already agreed on the transfer, even the player himself is personally out with his new employer.

With nine goals, Locadia knew an excellent first seizoenshelft, although the calendar year ended for him in a minor with an Ajax-run hamstring injury. That muscle tear keeps him still on the side, but it does not stop Brighton from fishing. The medical tests are also taken into account on Friday.

Locadia is reunited in England with former teammate Davy Pröpper, with whom he played two seasons in Eindhoven. Last summer the midfielder walked the same road for an amount of 13 million euros (excluding bonuses).

How do you pass a medical if you’re injured?

I’ve always assumed part of the medical is to get you to exercise to your peak heart rate level. Is that possible with an “upper leg injury”.

Where's [MENTION=14408]Werner[/MENTION] when we need him?



Mind you, he might fail his medical yet, as did 2 in the summer.

He managed 4 goals and an assist in a 7-1 win at Utrecht earlier this season. He's only been subbed once all season and not been on the bench, suggesting his general fitness has been good until the mid-December hammie.
