BRIGHTON star Moises Caicedo revealed Real Madrid are his “dream” club, just three months after trying to force a move away to Arsenal.
Caicedo has stood out this season in the Premier League and attracted interest from the likes of Chelsea, Liverpool and the Gunners, who had a £70million bid rejected in January.
However, the midfielder revealed his “biggest dream” would be to join Real and win the Champions League.
Caicedo told Carrusel Deportivo: “I like Real Madrid. It has always been my dream to play for Real Madrid.
“I’m doing things very well now, so why not join Real Madrid one day and win the Champions League? That is my biggest dream.”
This comes after Caicedo pleaded with Brighton owner Tony Bloom to let him join Arsenal during the January transfer window.
