Liverpool have reportedly opened talks with Premier League club Brighton & Hove Albion for star midfielder Moises Caicedo.

After the acquisition of Gakpo, many fans may have been anticipating to see the team try to sign a midfielder, especially because that region of the field has been a big subject of transfer discussion lately.

Caicedo, hailed as an ‘exceptional player and character‘ by his team-mates, has been a regular for the Seagulls this season and has outperformed all of Liverpool’s senior midfielders in the Premier League, as per WhoScored.

The 21-year-old appears to be a star of the future, so a move now could be an exciting one both in the short and long run.
