Arsenal and Chelsea have been handed a huge twist in the race to sign Brighton star Moises Caicedo in the upcoming summer transfer window. The Ecuadorian international looks set to leave the Seagulls in the next few weeks, with manager Roberto De Zerbi confirming that possibility at the end of the season.
"For sure we will lose some players, maybe [Moises] Caicedo and [Alexis] Mac Allister," the Italian coach told Sky Sports. "We have to be ready to bring in more good players and for the others; [Kaoru] Mitoma, [Pervis] Estupinan, I think for them the best solution is to stay with us."
The latter of the two mentioned as exits has already been confirmed as Liverpool have announced the signing of Alexis Mac Allister, with reports claiming the deal was worth in the region of £35million. With that move completed, the next player that could then follow is Caicedo.
