Brighton have rejected a second Chelsea bid for midfielder Moises Caicedo, which is thought to be around £70 million.
In January, the Ecuador international requested to leave Brighton due to interest from Arsenal.
Brighton declined, and Caicedo signed a new contract in March that goes through 2027.
However, he remains a great target for a number of Premier League clubs, with Chelsea being the most interested.
On Saturday, Chelsea will face Brighton in the first game of the Premier League’s six-team pre-season tournament in Philadelphia.
Caicedo will fly immediately from Ecuador to the United States, while Brighton’s squad will depart on Tuesday.
