Manchester United have joined the race to sign Brighton midfielder Moises Caicedo this summer, according to transfer guru Fabrizio Romano. The 20-year-old has been heavily linked with a move to Arsenal too, as Mikel Arteta eyes a potential reinforcement in the middle of the park.
The Ecuador international joined the Seagulls back in February from Independiente for roughly £5million, starting both Premier League games so far.

Youri Tielemans move
Arsenal are plotting a late move for Leicester City midfielder Youri Tielemans, says transfer specialist Dean Jones. The Belgian has been heavily linked with a switch to the Emirates Stadium, with just one-year remaining on his contract at the King Power Stadium.
Nicolas Pepe exit
Nicolas Pepe is eyeing an Arsenal exit this summer, having struggled to break into the first-team over the past season despite being the club-record signing back in 2019. Footmercato reports that a loan move to OGC Nice in Ligue 1 is on the cards for the remainder of the season.
The report also claims that a meeting has been held between the club and agents over a potential transfer in the window.
