Roberto De Zerbi
Brighton manager Roberto De Zerbi has offered a fresh stance on Moises Caicedo’s future with the 21-year-old being linked with a summer transfer to Arsenal. The Gunners had two bids for Caicedo rejected by the Seagulls in January before he signed a new long-term deal to stay at the Amex Stadium until 2027. When asked if Caicedo and Mac Allister were going to leave Brighton,
Roberto De Zerbi replied: “I didn’t say it like this. I said it could be a possibility to lose some big players like Caicedo, Mac Allister and Mitoma.We are Brighton and I know the policy of our club, my club. We have to be ready to bring other good players with the right characteristic, the right condition of our club.”
Following the Seagulls’ 3-0 win against the Gunners on Sunday,
Roberto De Zerbi said on the midfield pairing: “For sure we will lose some players [this summer], maybe [Moises] Caicedo and [Alexis] Mac Allister. We have to be ready to bring in more good players and for the others; [Kaoru] Mitoma, [Pervis] Estupinan, I think for them the best solution is to stay with us.”
