Graham Potter has already found the perfect heir to N'Golo Kante's throne at Chelsea ahead of the January transfer window - Moises Caicedo. The 21-year-old midfielder was heavily linked with an exit from Brighton and Hove Albion this summer following an impressive campaign at the Amex Stadium last season.
Caicedo - who sees his contract on the south coast expire in 2025 - featured 13 times in the Premier League for Potter's former side. Despite only appearing for the Seagulls in the latter stages of the 2021/22 campaign, he impressed and left his mark with a long-range effort versus Manchester United.
The Ecuador international continues to be a mainstay in the Brighton side, reportedly courting the interest of Arsenal and Liverpool. However, with Caicedo likened to Kante, Chelsea have been told why the midfielder could be the ideal option at Stamford Bridge instead, especially given his previous working relationship with Potter.
