Exciting Moises Caicedo update for Chelsea fans
In our opinion, that Chelsea are actively trying to sign Moises Caicedo from Brighton and Hove Albion is hugely exciting for the fans.
And that the player himself is keen on a.switch to the Blues is very encouraging as well.
Now, of course, Chelsea will have to pay the transfer fee that Brighton want for Caicedo, but at least the Blues know that agreeing personal terms with the midfielder will not be a problem.
The Times have reported that the Seagulls are looking for £80 million in transfer fees for Caicedo.
It will be interesting to see if Chelsea are willing to pay it.
Arsenal have also been linked with the 21-year-old, so Chelsea could face competition from the Gunners as well.
