Amid interest from Arsenal and Chelsea, Moises Caicedo has released expressing his interest to leave Brighton where he has achieved so much success.
In the statement he shared confirming his desire to leave Brighton, Caicedo disclosed that he wants to become Ecuador’s most successful player ever, as well as bring in a record fee for the club with his transfer.
He wrote on Instagram;
“I am grateful to [club owner] Mr. [Tony] Bloom and Brighton for giving me the chance to come to the Premier League and I feel I have always done my best for them. I always play football with a smile and with heart.
“I am the youngest of 10 siblings from a poor upbringing in Santa Domingo in Ecuador. My dream always to be the most decorated player in the history of Ecuador.
“I am proud to be able to bring in a record transfer fee for Brighton which would allow them to reinvest it and help the club continue to be successful.
“The fans have taken me into their hearts and they will always be in my heart so I hope they can understand why I want to take up this magnificent opportunity.”
Arsenal has already stepped up their interest in Brighton’s Moises Caicedo by submitting a bid in the region of £60million.
Brighton manager Roberto De Zerbi has already said that he believes that Caicedo would be in the right frame of mind to face Liverpool on Sunday, January 29, in the FA Cup.
