In an official statement, the club highlighted that the 26-year-old Japanese player will remain with the team for several more seasons to leverage his remarkable skills.

In the current season, Mitoma has already scored three goals and contributed three assists in the eight matches he has played so far.

Brighton currently occupies the sixth position in the Premier League standings with 16 points. They are scheduled to face defending champions Manchester City in the ninth round of the competition tomorrow.
