Moises Caicedo has admitted Brighton boss Roberto De Zerbi played a key role in his decision to sign a new contract with the Seagulls.
Strongly linked with Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea during the January window, Caicedo publicly announced his desire to leave the club but was denied his wish as Brighton rejected two bids from Arsenal - the latter of which is believed to have been in the region of £70million.
Putting an end to talk over his future, the Ecuadorian midfielder last week agreed a new deal at Brighton until 2027 to further strengthen his side's hand when it comes to future negotiations with bidding clubs.
