‘Transfer Approved!’ – Superstar now ready to put pen to paper at Emirate as Arsenal have bid accepted for extremely talented maestro; Gunners welcome midfielder for contract signing
Journalist Jacque Talbot has reported on Twitter that Arsenal have now agreed a deal for Moises Caicedo after making a huge third bid for the Brighton star.
Caicedo appears to be the clear top target for the Gunners heading into the final hours of the January transfer window. As reported by The Athletic, Arsenal have already made two bids for the Ecuadorian, including an offer worth £70 million.
Brighton have dug their heels in and suggested that the 21-year-old is not going anywhere. However, it seems that the deadlock has now been broken.
In fact, Talbot has reported on Twitter that Arsenal have now made a club-record bid for Caicedo. And a deal for the youngster has been agreed between the two clubs.
It would be amazing for Arsenal to round off the window with a move for Caicedo. He has been a revelation in the Premier League this season. He has really stepped up following the departure of Yves Bissouma in he summer.
The Gunners need another midfielder before the deadline passes. And after speculation that they may make a move for Jorginho, it appears that they are about to get the name at the top of their wishlist.
