Knight is hoping to make his move to Brighton permanent
On-loan striker Leon Knight says he is hoping to secure a permanent move from Chelsea to Brighton.
The former England youth international knows his chances at Stamford Bridge will be limited after the Blues strengthened their squad with their summer spending spree.
Knight impressed on his Seagulls debut with two goals against Oldham, and said he would be happy to turn his two-month loan deal into a permanent move.
"It's really down to (Chelsea), and I'm going to speak to them in the next week or so and see if we can tie up something here (Brighton) either permanently, or a longer loan deal," Knight told Brighton's official website.
"We'll just have to wait and see, but hopefully I can get settled somewhere and know that I'll be playing somewhere permanently."

Knight said he had been impressed at the set up in Brighton.
"Steve Coppell is the manager I would like to play under, because it's important to have someone who knows what he's doing and can manage his players individually and collectively.
Knight also promised the Brighton fans that they would see an improvement in his play during the next couple of months.
"I don't think I'm anywhere near my best, as I haven't played for nearly seven months," he said.
