Chelsea look set to hand Arsenal another huge transfer blow as Todd Boehly prepares one final attempt to sign Moises Caicedo this month. The 21-year-old has been heavily linked with a move to both Stamford Bridge and the Emirates Stadium as he continues to impress for Brighton.
football.london understands that Caicedo is Arsenal's primary target in Mikel Arteta's mission to sign a midfielder. It's believed Edu has submitted two bids for the Ecuador international but both have been rejected.
It's said that the Blues are also in the market for a new midfielder this month amid the uncertain futures of N'Golo Kante and Jorginho, who are both set to leave in the summer once their contracts expire. The former has spent the season injured on the sidelines while the latter has struggled for form, so Caicedo was identified.
