Arsenal remain interested in signing Brighton midfielder Moises Caicedo this summer, as per transfer guru Fabrizio Romano.
Speaking on his YouTube channel, Romano said: "Caicedo will complete the season with Brighton. But the expectation of those close to the club and to the player is at the end, Caicedo, in the summer, will have his top club move.
"This is the feeling. This is the expectation. Caicedo remains on the list of Arsenal, but also Chelsea and Liverpool. Caicedo will probably get his top club move in the summer. This is the expectation of those around the player.”

The Gunners were keen to prise Caicedo away from the Amex Stadium during the January transfer window, with the Seagulls rejecting two bids from the north Londoners, consistently maintaining that the player was not for sale halfway through the season. However, if Romano's report is to be believed, Mikel Arteta's side could come back this summer again for the 21-year-old.
However, any potential move for the Ecuadorian will not impact Arsenal's pursuit of West Ham United captain Declan Rice, football.london understands. T he Gunners still hold a keen interest in signing Rice in the summer, with the England international widely expected to leave the Hammers at the end of the current campaign.
When asked if Arsenal were capable of winning the Premier League title back in December of last year, the 24-year-old said: "100 per cent. They are a top team.
"You can see they are coached incredibly well, have a lot of attacking talent, a young squad and they can go the whole way for sure."
