Arsenal looking to add third January signing with £60m bid for Brighton midfielder Moisés Caicedo

Arsenal have submitted a £60m bid to sign Moisés Caicedo from Brighton as Mikel Arteta tries to strengthen his squad for the title run-in.

Chelsea had a £55m verbal proposal for the midfielder rejected this month and Brighton hope to keep the 21-year-old but Arsenal are pushing for a deal and negotiations are a key juncture.

Arteta said this week he wanted a midfielder because of a knee injury to Mohamed Elneny. With Arsenal five points clear of Manchester City at the top of the Premier League with a game in hand the manager is determined not to waste the chance to win the club’s first title since 2004.

This month Arsenal have brought in the forward Leandro Trossard from Brighton for up to £26m and the defender Jakub Kiwior from Spezia for about £22m including add-ons.
