JOAO PEDRO has decided where he wants to move amid transfer interest from Newcastle and Chelsea.
The striker could be on the way out of Brighton this summer after impressing for the Seagulls over the last two years.

He is likely to demand a significant fee and his options could be limited because of where he wants to play.
Pedro’s Brighton team-mate Igor Julio has revealed the Brazilian is keen on a move to London in a dent to Newcastle’s ambitions.
He told Trivela: “Joao Pedro had already told Brighton some time ago that his desire was to leave, look for new things and take the next step.
“It seems it will be difficult and complicated for him to stay here, we have to be honest, the club already knows that he said in contact with the report via video call.
“He always told me that he really wants to live in London, so I think he will prioritise what comes from there first.”
Julio believes Pedro should move to a Big Six club competing in the Champions League, so Chelsea could be ideal.
But if the Blues want him this summer they might have to fork out a huge fee.
Brighton slapped a £70m price tag on the 23-year-old but SunSport understands that they will be willing to do business for £59m.

Newcastle could try and sign him once again with Eddie Howe still a big admirer.
Toon came close to landing Pedro two years ago, who has scored 30 goals in 70 games on the south coast since arriving for £30m from Watford.
