Brighton midfielder Moises Caicedo is happy to put up with speculation around his future having just penned a new deal at Brighton.

The Ecuador international says he trains hard every day to ensure people are always talking about his talent.

Brighton rejected two bids from Arsenal during the January window, with the second one of 70million sparking Caicedo to go public with his desire to leave.

The Seagulls stood firm and last week agreed a surprise new contract with their star man until 2027.

Arsenal remain interested in the 21-year-old, while Chelsea are also keeping tabs on his progress.

He told Sky Sports: "People want to speak about me, the other players as well. Brighton have a lot of good players with a lot of quality, intelligent players.

"I am happy for that, people speaking about me.

"That is why I train well every day, show my best football. That is why, for people to keep speaking about me."
