Arsenal face tight January deadline to complete Moises Caicedo deal amid coy Brighton stance

Arsenal are expected to face a hectic end to the January transfer window. The Gunners remain keen on bolstering the midfield options within Mikel Arteta's squad as they look to fulfil their Premier League title charge.

Two players have already been secured this month with Leandro Trossard and Jakub Kiwior arriving from Brighton and Spezia. However, with the north Londoners aiming to secure their first league title in 19 years, investing in a long-term midfielder replacement is the priority.

Moises Caicedo has been made Edu Gasper's number one target and has already been the subject of a £65million bid - which was rejected by Brighton. The Ecuador international was left out of the Seagulls' 2-1 win over Brighton on Sunday afternoon after releasing a statement of his desire to leave the club and speculation surrounding his future has intensified following Roberto De Zerbi's comments.
