It has been revealed when Chelsea plan to wrap up a deal for Moises Caicedo. The 21-year-old midfielder has been heavily linked with a move to Stamford Bridge recently and, despite pressure from Manchester United, the Blues seem relatively relaxed in their approach.
football.london understands that the Gunners tried to sign Caicedo in January, submitting two bids which were rejected. Despite pushing for an exit, the Ecuador international penned a new long-term deal just a few months later, keeping him at the Amex Stadium until 2027.
At first, it seemed as if his contract extension would rule out a move in the summer, although that doesn't seem to be the case with Chelsea expected to submit a bid soon. football.london understands that the Blues hold an interest in Caicedo, but they're aware he could cost in the region of £80million.
