Graham Potter dismisses Caicedo transfer rumours

The Brighton manager Graham Potter said the player is a "delight to work with".

Brighton manager Graham Potter has dismissed transfer rumours linking midfielder Moises Caicedo with a move away from the club. 

He says the player is loved at Brighton and a “delight to work with."

Ecuador international Caicedo has impressed since making his Albion debut in April, prompting links with Premier League rivals Manchester United and Liverpool.

The 20-year-old has played just 10 top-flight games in his fledgling career, losing only once, and Seagulls head coach Potter is excited by his potential.

In his pre-match press conference Potter said: “He’s a really humble person, loves playing football.

“Really low maintenance as a player, just comes and wants to join in his football with his team-mates. He’s really enjoying his football, as you can imagine.

“He’s only young, but he’s got such a high possibility we think. We love him here.

“As for speculation, it is what it is. While the transfer window is open you always get that type of stuff but he’s really enjoying his football here and we’re really enjoying having him.

“As a coach, he’s a delight to work with. He hasn’t played many games, but he hasn’t lost that many in the Premier League either so maybe he thinks it’s a little different than it is, but long may that continue of course.”

Brighton travel to West Ham on Sunday looking to maintain their unbeaten start to the Premier League season.
