Brighton midfielder, Moises Caicedo, is willing to submit a transfer request in a bid to force through a move to either Arsenal or Chelsea.
The January transfer window closes on Tuesday.
Caicedo wants to leave the Amex before the transfer deadline.
Sportsmail reports that Caicedo is considering his options as he eyes a dream move to London, after Arsenal submitted a formal offer for him on Friday.
It remains to be seen whether the Ecuador midfielder is in the right frame of mind to face Liverpool in the FA Cup on Sunday.
Arsenal have made a £60million offer for the 21-year-old. The offer has already been rejected by Brighton.
The Gunners are set to return with an improved offer. And a bid of around £80million may tempt Brighton into selling. Although they recognise it could be difficult to reject the overtures if Caicedo pushes harder for an exit.
