Brighton midfielder Moises Caicedo has voiced his regret following his tackle on Arsenal forward Gabriel Martinelli

Brighton midfielder Moises Caicedo has admitted he regrets fouling Arsenal star Gabriel Martinelli after his challenge injured the Brazilian international on Sunday afternoon.

But club doctor O’Driscoll has since allayed worries, admitting that Martinelli’s issue is unlikely to rule him out of his side’s last two games of the season. When asked by a supporter how the player was doing, O’Driscoll replied by saying: “Sore. Terrible foul, disgraceful foul.

"But yeah, he’s a bit sore but he should be okay.” He added: “Yeah, I think he should be back before the end of the season."
