BRIGHTON star Moises Caicedo has apparently deleted his official Instagram profile.
This comes just over a month after Caicedo tried to force a move away from the Amex Stadium via social media.
The midfielder was linked with a January transfer to Arsenal, who had a £70million bid turned down by the Seagulls and ultimately landed Jorginho.
Chelsea also tried to sign the Ecuador international but their approach was also rejected by the south coast side.
The 21-year-old tried to take matters into his own hands and pushed for a move on Instagram where he shared a long post expressing his desire to leave.
But Caicedo’s tactic didn’t pay off as he stayed put at Brighton with the club’s hierarchy issuing him a stay-at-home warning before his eventual return to Roberto De Zerbi’s squad.

It doesn’t look like the Ecuadorian will be sharing any messages from Instagram any time soon as he appears to have scrapped his ‘moises_caicedo55’ account.
Caicedo’s recent statement raised some eyebrows as it contained some errors.
Remarkably, the Brighton star spelt the name of his home town Santo Domingo as “Santa Domingo”.
Caicedo wrote: “I am grateful to Mr. [Tony] Bloom and Brighton for giving me the chance to come to the Premier League and I feel I have always done my best for them. I always play football with a smile and with heart.

“I am the youngest of 10 siblings from a poor upbringing in Santa Domingo in Ecuador. My dream always to be the most decorated player in the history of Ecuador.
“I am proud to be able to bring in a record transfer fee for Brighton which would allow them to reinvest it and help the club continue to be successful.
“The fans have taken me into their hearts and they will always be in my heart so I hope they can understand why I want to take up this magnificent opportunity.”
