A fresh insight into the current mindset of Brighton & Hove Albion star Moises Caicedo has been provided late on Thursday.
The name of Ecuadorian international Caicedo, of course, has taken its place centre stage in the headlines across the English media once more this evening.
This comes after widespread confirmation was forthcoming that Chelsea had tabled yet another proposal for the in-demand midfielder.
As confirmed by a whole host of sources, the Blues moved forward with their 4th offer of the summer, amounting to a hefty £80 million.
Brighton, however, have continued to stand firm, knocking the bid back without so much as a 2nd thought.

The powers that be at Stamford Bridge, in turn, have been left with a decision to make, in either upping their already mammoth proposal, or moving on to alternative engine room targets.
Well, as alluded to above, an insight into precisely that has been forthcoming on Thursday evening.
The info comes courtesy of transfer expert David Ornstein, who has confirmed that ‘Caicedo wants the move and personal terms will not be a problem’.
In fact, The Athletic reporter goes as far as to claim that the gifted 21-year-old ‘is determined to seal a switch to Stamford Bridge’.
