Arsenal receive response to £60m Moises Caicedo bid after stepping up transfer pursuit

Arsenal's surprise offer of £60million for Moises Caicedo has been rejected by Brighton, who remain adamant that the Ecuadorian international is not for sale this month.

The midfielder has been the subject of interest from a number of Premier League giants since arriving at the Amex just under two years ago. For much of the current window, it has been Chelsea that were the rumoured leaders in the race for his signature, but the Gunners offered £5million more than their London rivals; though that still wasn't enough.

The Athletic report how the Seagulls hierachy swiftly rejected the bid from Arsenal, who are desperate to bolster their midfield options before the window closes next week. Fears that Mohamed Elneny's injury will see him ruled out for the rest of the season have only increased the Gunners' efforts to sign a midfielder this month.
