Brighton 'expect Moises Caicedo to STAY at the club after the transfer window closes' amid interest from Chelsea with the Seagulls 'believing no club will match their £105m valuation'

Brighton believe that Moises Caicedo will remain at the club after the transfer window closes despite heavy links to their Premier League rivals, according to reports.

The midfielder has been the focus of feverish interest from clubs including Liverpool and Chelsea, and the Blues have been dogged in their bid to secure the Ecuadorian's services.

Chelsea have had four bids for the midfielder rejected, their latest thought to be worth £80million, but the Seagulls wasted no time in rebuffing the offer from Mauricio Pochettino's club.

The 21-year-old previously signed a fresh four-year deal with the south coast club in January in the midst of a strong Premier League showing, but the player is thought to have been assured that he could leave Roberto De Zerbi's side should the right offer come in.
