The midfielder will already have endeared himself to fans by potentially rejecting a transfer to Old Trafford (if the report in question is to be believed) in favour of a link-up with Jurgen Klopp.

A player described as ‘a delight to work with’ by Seagulls boss, Graham Potter (in quotes relayed by The National), it seems somewhat unlikely that the South Coast-based outfit will be prepared to sanction the exit of their latest unearthed gem in light of the fact that his contract doesn’t expire until 2025.
At 20 years of age, of course, Caicedo does just fit within the bracket of midfielders our recruitment team tend to consider, which could prove a tempting consideration.
