Matt O’Riley believes his future remains at Brighton after speaking out on links with a move to Juventus.
O’Riley netted from the spot to put Brighton ahead against Fulham, though the Cottagers pegged back the home side thanks to a 96th minute Rodrigo Muniz equaliser.
Football Insider exclusively revealed in June that Brighton would accept offers in the region of £30million for O’Riley, with Juventus among the Serie A club’s interested in the 24-year-old.
O’Riley joined Brighton last summer from Celtic, after a successful two seasons at the Scottish club, winning back-to-back Premiership titles.

Football Insider Verdict
Starting the first game of the season against Fulham may indicate that O’Riley is part of Fabian Hurzeler’s plans this season, even though the Dane has been heavily linked with a move away from the AMEX.
O’Riley was Brighton’s star performer against Fulham, and given more minutes this season the midfielder may have more suitors for his services next summer.
European club’s meanwhile could offer O’Riley Champions League football, something he experienced whilst at Celtic.
It could make for a hectic end to the transfer window for O’Riley and Brighton.
