Chelsea have been dealt a great boost in their bid to sign Moises Caicedo as well as completing other important pieces of business this summer. The Blues have made the 21-year-old one of their main priorities for the window, football.london understands, and see him as a primary target.
After several bids were rejected by Brighton in the winter it is expected that Chelsea will have to go beyond the £70million mark, especially with a secret bid being made for the player last week that was once more sent back swiftly.
As negotiations with Tony Bloom have tended to, this one looks set to stumble on with Arsenal also remaining interested in the player. Whilst the Seagulls value their prize asset at over £100million and he did only sign a new long-term contract extension in March, there is hope that the price will be dropped.
