On the deal, Brighton boss Graham Potter said: “We are delighted to welcome Aaron to the club. He has played very well over the past two seasons in the Premier League, and will bring a different option and added competition to our midfield.
“He’s been a talisman for Huddersfield in recent seasons with his performances on the field; and he’s proved to be an excellent professional both on and off the pitch.
“I’m looking forward to working with him, and he is another good addition to our squad ahead of the new season.”
Mooy played the full 90 minutes in Huddersfield’s 2-1 defeat to Derby on Monday night, returning a WhoScored rating of 6.49.
