Arsenal have switched their attentions to Chelsea's Jorginho in their search for a new central midfielder. Arsenal have a good relationship with Brighton, the club successfully signing Ben White from the Amex Stadium in deal worth £50million ahead of next season. As a result the Gunners have started analysing alternatives; with Chelsea midfielder Jorginho emerging as their preferred option. Prior to the new offer, Brighton were adamant they did not want to sell the Ecuadorian and their stance has not changed. If any third bid fo Caicedo is rebuffed, then sources close to the deal have indicated that the Gunners will seriously consider moving onto other targets.
