Caicedo released a post on Instagram making it clear he wanted to leave on Friday evening, saying he would be "proud to be able to bring in a record transfer fee for Brighton".
Arsenal have had a £60m bid rejected for the Ecuador international already in this window, while Chelsea have also expressed an interest in the 21-year-old who has only been training with the Seagulls' first team since the summer.
Sky Sports News has been told Brighton have made it clear to Arsenal that Moises Caicedo is categorically not for sale.
Brighton have also made it clear to Caicedo he won't be leaving in this window. They appreciate his head has been turned by the interest in him, and have given him a few days away to get his head right for the remainder of the season.
