Chelsea are planning to submit their official bid for Moises Caicedo once several sales have been completed. The Blues saw their £60million bid made in early June rejected immediately by Brighton but the expectation is another proposal is coming soon.
The bulk of focus for Todd Boehly and Mauricio Pochettino has been to seal mass amount of outgoings before then focusing on making key additions. A heavily bloated squad and crucial June 30 FFP deadline made doing so of paramount importance and after a slow start, progress is finally being made.
While not wanted by Chelsea, N'Golo Kante turned down a new contract and chose to join Al Ittihad and he looks set to be joined in Saudi Arabia by three others. Hakim Ziyech, Kalidou Koulibaly and Edouard Mendy have all accepted offers to play in the Middle East for the 2023/24 season with marquee names such as Karim Benzema, signed this summer, and Cristiano Ronaldo already in the division.
