Chelsea have emerged as the frontrunner to sign Brighton’s midfield revelation Moises Caicedo.
With Arsenal’s transfer sights firmly trained on Declan Rice, the Blues see a clear path to signing the 21-year-old, but now face the task of negotiating with the Seagull’s shrewd owner and chairman Tony Bloom, who The Telegraph reports to value the player as high as £120m.

Having stood their ground in the face of intense interest from Arsenal in the winter, Brighton will be looking to obtain as high a fee as possible for Caicedo.
Chelsea may have some cards to play, however, with Brighton interested in the permanent signing of Levi Colwill who was on loan at the Amex Stadium last term.
Chelsea may also be able to use other players such as Conor Gallagher as part of a package.
