Brighton fullback Pervis Estupinan says he hopes Moises Caicedo chooses to stay this season.
His fellow Ecuador international is subject of an £80m offer from Chelsea - which the Seagulls have rejected.
It's also emerged an unnamed Saudi Pro League is also in contact.
And Estupinan said: “I think that is a question for Moi.
“If he stays with us, we will be happy and, if not, we will wish him all the best."
