According to reports, Arsenal will have to pay at least 100 million for the signature of Moises Caicedo. Moises Caicedo is already in agreement to leave the Seagulls in the next summer. However, Brighton extended his contract to make sure to get the best transfer fee possible. A report also claims that a player- swap also remains a possibility.

There is also a suggestion that the Gunners will offer the likes of Folarin Balogun or even Rob Holding in the deal for Moises Caicedo. However, the Gunners must remain careful of the extremely rich and interested Chelsea.
CHELSEA REMAIN IN THE RACE FOR HIS SIGNATURE
According to Fabrizio Romano, Chelsea have dropped out of the race for Manuel Ugarte. PSG have won the race for his signature. Hence, Chelsea are now likely to involve themselves with Arsenal for the signature of Moises Caicedo. Moises Caicedo remains open to a move to both of the clubs. Hence, it is a case of who agrees a transfer fee with Brighton first.
