Chelsea Pursuing British Record £115m Deal to Sign Moises Caicedo from Brighton after Liverpool Rejection
Chelsea Football Club is actively working on a deal to secure the services of Brighton midfielder Moises Caicedo for a British record transfer fee of £115m. This comes after Caicedo turned down an offer from Liverpool, despite the Reds agreeing to pay a British record fee of £111m to Brighton. The 21-year-old midfielder has expressed his desire to join Chelsea, who have been pursuing him throughout the summer transfer window.
Chelsea Football Club is making significant efforts to sign Moises Caicedo from Brighton in a deal that would break the British transfer record. The midfielder rejected Liverpool’s offer, even though the Reds had agreed to pay a British record fee of £111m to Brighton. Caicedo has set his sights on a move to Stamford Bridge and has made it clear that he only wants to leave Brighton for Chelsea.
The Blues initially offered £100m for the 21-year-old, but they are now working on increasing their bid to £115m. If successful, this transfer would surpass the previous British record fee paid by Chelsea, which was £106.8m for midfielder Enzo Fernandez from Benfica in January.
Caicedo was expected to undergo a medical at Liverpool after the club had their bid accepted by Brighton. However, the midfielder had a change of heart and informed Liverpool that he did not want to join them. Instead, he remained in London, emphasizing his desire to join Chelsea.
Chelsea’s pursuit of Caicedo is part of their plan to strengthen their midfield this summer. The club is also close to reaching an agreement with Southampton for the signing of Romeo Lavia, who is also a target for Liverpool.
