Chelsea star Enzo Fernandez appears to have given the club hierarchy the green light to make a move for Brighton star Moises Caicedo this summer. The Blues have been heavily linked with a switch for the 21-year-old, who could join a team of youthful Blues by revamping the midfield.
football.london understands that there is a growing confidence at the west London club surrounding a deal for Caicedo in the coming weeks. The price of such a transfer is uncertain though, with some claims that it could be £80million, but with other reports stating it's based on Declan Rice's fee when he leaves West Ham.
A move for Caicedo could help unlock the rest of Chelsea's midfield, which is set for a complete rework over the summer months with Mason Mount, N'Golo Kante, Mateo Kovacic and Conor Gallagher all expected to leave. The future of the central ranks is clearly focused around club-record signing Fernandez.
