Albion have been linked with Reims midfielder Marshall Munetsi.
But they will be told he could cost them an eight-figure fee.
The Seagulls are reported to be eyeing the Zimbabwe international in the wake of Yves Bissouma’s departure to Tottenham.
There is no confirmation of interest from closer to Albion.

But The Argus have been told he would command more than the £7 million price tag being reported.
A well-placed source close to Reims said "for sure they wouldn't sell him at that price" and believes it would take closer to £15 million to prise away the 26-year-old, who recently signed a new contract.
Munetsi has 13 caps for Zimbabwe and made 20 Ligue 1 starts last term.
