Brighton is open to selling their Star Player to Arsenal for less than €60 million as player begs club not to disappoint him like Caicedo

Arsenal are expected to lead the chase for Kaoru Mitoma from Brighton & Hove Albion.

Recent reports suggest that Arsenal have made significant progress in their pursuit of the Japanese international, outstripping competition from Manchester United and Manchester City.

Mikel Arteta believes that Mitoma, given his performances since breaking into the Brighton starting eleven in 2022, could be the missing piece of the puzzle to boost Arsenal’s chances, especially against City and Liverpool. Gabriel Martinelli has had a disappointing season so far after a fantastic performance in 2022/23, scoring just two goals in the Premier League before rounding off Arsenal’s comprehensive win over Crystal Palace with a goal on the break.

Spanish newspaper Fichajes reports that Arsenal are actively chasing Mitoma and have become leaders in the transfer race, with United and City remaining in the hunt. The winger, who contributed heavily to Brighton’s victory, is said to have attracted the attention of the north London club.
