Ecuador international made it crystal clear earlier that he has no intention of leaving Brighton and he is focused on growing at the club.
“I’m focused on Brighton. I’m here, I’m focused on this club, so things from outside don’t trouble me, nor does it take that focus away because I’m focused on only here. Caicedo stated
“I only try to be focused on the club which opened the doors for me to be playing every week.
“I am here. I’m playing every day … I handle the [speculation well]. You hear rumors here and there, but I only try to be focused on the club,” he ended.
Caicedo has had a great season so far with his impressive ball play at Brighton’s Midfield catching the notice of big clubs.
He has had 18 appearances so fast with a goal and an assist in the 2022/23 Premier League Campaign.
