It has been claimed that Arsenal are still interested in trying to sign Brighton star Moises Caicedo in the summer window.

Arsenal were very much interested in a deal for the impressive Caicedo – as they felt that they need to add another box-to-box midfielder to the squad to help ease the pressure on Thomas Partey.

Partey has been brilliant this season for the club, but he is now out for a while after picking up an injury, but the Gunners failed to get a deal done for Caicedo and ultimately decided to make a move for Jorginho.

However – reports on the Sky Sports website have claimed that Arsenal are still interested in signing Caicedo in the summer window, and may be ready to pay that £80 million asking price.

After seeing Arsenal miss out on Caicedo in the January window – Former Premier League star Danny Murphy has revealed he would “have driven” Moises Caicedo to Arsenal.

Murphy claimed for that price the Seagulls should have sold the Ecuador international – He said on talkSPORT, Murphy said: “£70million for Caicedo? I’d have driven him there.

“I mean, he could do a cruciate next month.”

Murphy added: “I’m sure he is [a good professional], i’m just saying there’s a possibility it will weigh on him.

“And the fact is £70m – he’s good, but that is more than a fair price.”

If Arsenal manage to get the powerhouse for the right amount of money – he will be a great buy – but if they pay too much money – it could be a very costly risk to take
