Manchester United, Arsenal and West Ham are all keeping tabs on Brighton star Moises Caicedo.

Alongside that trio, the Mirror say there is interest from abroad with Juventus, Atletico Madrid and Bayer Leverkusen all monitoring his continued progress.

The midfielder, 20, has been hugely impressive for the Seagulls since breaking into the side at the end of last season.

An Ecuador international, Caicedo spent the first half of the 2021-22 campaign on loan at Beerschot in Belgium before returning to the Amex and starting his parent club's final eight games.

Graham Potter’s men ended strongly, winning at both Arsenal and Tottenham during that spell as well as thrashing United 4-0 at home.

As a result, the youngster kept his place in the side for this season's victory at Old Trafford and Saturday’s draw at home to Newcastle.

Having signed him for only £4.5million from Independiente del Valle 18 months ago, Brighton would make a healthy profit if they did sanction a sale.

But that seems highly unlikely given Yves Bissouma and Marc Cucurella have both departed for a combined £87m this window, leaving the Seagulls with no need to sell.

And speaking last week, boss Potter emphasised the need to keep the pressure off the youngster.

He said: "He is not that old and is still adapting and learning but he has great qualities. He’s fantastic, he really is.

"I think, for young players, they just need to play more games and not have to too much pressure put on them but we enjoy working with him."
