The two midfielders have played a key role in Brighton’s season with De Zerbi’s side securing a sixth-placed finish in the Premier League. Last week, reports in Argentina claimed that Liverpool had agreed a £70 million deal to sign Mac Allister this summer, while the midfielder has already finalised personal terms with Jurgen Klopp’s side. Meanwhile, Arsenal had multiple offers for Caicedo rejected by Brighton in the January transfer window but have retained their interest in the Ecuador international ahead of the summer transfer window. ‘They deserve to change level of team and competition, we have to be happy for them,’ De Zerbi said of Caicedo and Mac Allister after Brighton’s 2-1 defeat to Aston Villa on Sunday.
