Nafeza 2 world - Rushworth was named the supporters’ player of the year and players’ player of the year at Swansea last season.
The 22-year-old is hungry to play in the Premier League, and will attempt to convince new Brighton boss Fabian Hurzeler that he is ready for top-flight football in pre-season.
Rushworth, who has also been linked with a loan move to Ipswich Town, will face competition from the likes of Bart Verbruggen, Jason Steele, Tom McGill, James Beadle and Kjell Scherpen for an opportunity at the Amex Stadium.
“Rushy I think is going to have a very competitive pre-season,” Williams added.
“He will try to show the best of himself and to impress as much as he can.”
With Rushworth gone, Andy Fisher, 26, is the only established goalkeeper at Swansea, although they also have former AFC Wimbledon stopper Nathan Broome, 22, in their squad.
