Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal could make a bid for Liverpool summer transfer target and Brighton and Hove Albion midfielder Moises Caicedo, according to journalist Dean Jones.
Arsenal could move for Liverpool target Moises Caicedo
The well-known and well-respected journalist has told GiveMeSport that if Arsenal fail to sign Belgium international midfielder Youri Tielemans from Premier League rivals Leicester City in the summer transfer window, then they could make a move for Caicedo.
Interestingly, the 20-year-old Ecuador international midfielder has been linked with Liverpool and Manchester United as well.
Studio Futbol reported this week that Manchester United want to sign Caicedo, but the midfielder does not fancy a move to Old Trafford.
The report claimed that Liverpool could make a bid of £42 million for the youngster.
We covered the report here on HITC Sport.
90min reported on August 16 that Liverpool and Chelsea are among the clubs keen on securing the services of the midfielder this summer.
Jones told GiveMeSport:“If they go for it, I still expect a bid for Tielemans to go in. And on the back of that, if they don’t have any success with it, I wouldn’t totally rule him out, Caicedo.”
