ARSENAL AND MOISES CAICEDO TRANSFER LINKS FULL STORY
According to reports, Arsenal are showing interest in signing Brighton midfielder Moises Caicedo. The report also claims that the midfielder is open to a possible January transfer move. However, the midfielder is not going to force a move out in the January transfer window. Brighton are also not in a hurry to sell him in the January transfer window. The report also claims that the Gunners are also open to a next summer transfer window.
However, they are also monitoring a possible deal in the January transfer window. Although, Arsenal have not made a bid for him yet. They have also not yet opened discussions on personal terms. Hence, the interest is not advanced. Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has also said that he expects the Caicedo situation to heat up in the last days of the January transfer window. However, he has also claimed that Brighton will only sell him if they have an extraordinary bid and a replacement ready to arrive.
CHELSEA AND LIVERPOOL ARE ALSO MONITORING THE SITUATION
According to reports, both Chelsea and Liverpool are leading the race for his signature. Liverpool were looking to sign Jude Bellingham. However, Dortmund are not ready to sell him for less than 150 million. Hence, they are now looking to sign Moises Caicedo in the January window. They will also revisit the deal of Jude Bellingham in the next summer transfer window. This is because the futures of Chamberlin, Naby Keita, and James Milner are in doubt at the moment.
Hence, in this window and coming windows, Liverpool will need midfielder signings. Chelsea also have the same situation. Hence, they made an offer of 55 million. However, the bid was immediately rejected by Brighton. Therefore, Arsenal still have the chance to enter the race and win Caicedo’s signature. A report also claims that the Gunners are also open to a pre-agreement transfer for Caicedo in the next summer transfer window. Hence, in this way, Brighton will have him till the end of the season.
Although, it will not be a surprise if Arsenal pulls out of the race. This is because the Gunners also need to sign a new midfielder immediately for the remainder of the season. It is to have squad depth for the rest of the season in the title fight. Gunners manager Mikel Arteta also has a good amount of options ready along with Moises Caicedo.
