Darren Bent has spoken about where Brighton and Hove Albion midfielder Moises Caicedo could end up ahead of the summer transfer window re-opening – Arsenal or Liverpool.
The former striker, who is a boyhood Arsenal fan, admitted that he would ‘love’ Moises Caicedo to join Mikel Arteta’s side, as he told Vibe with Five.
But he feels that the transfer which makes ‘most sense’ is joining Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool, who should be playing Europa League football next season.
Manchester United need one more point from their last two matches and they will have the top four secured.
In truth, Erik ten Hag’s men should get that over the line, so whilst the Reds play Europa League football, Brighton will also be in that competition after Roberto De Zerbi guided them to Europe for the first time in their 122-year history.
Despite that, there is still every chance that the Seagulls lose their key players, with Bent speaking about Caicedo’s future.
“I would love him to come to Arsenal,” said Bent. “But, outside of Arsenal, that’s the one that makes the most sense (to Liverpool).
“Fabinho is getting older. He hasn’t got the legs anymore.”
WHO SHOULD CAICEDO JOIN – ARSENAL OR LIVERPOOL?
It could be argued that it’s Liverpool who are more in need of fresh and stronger legs in the middle of the park.
Yes, they have ended the season well, but you can’t hide away from the issues this season, with the midfield being the biggest issue.
But whilst Klopp needs the energy of Caicedo at Anfield, for Roy Keane, he thinks the ‘powerful’ midfielder will end up at the Emirates.
