Chelsea Football Club has officially reached an agreement with Brighton & Hove Albion for the transfer of Moisés Caicedo, solidifying what will be a British record-breaking deal. The highly anticipated and initially controversial move, carries a staggering fee of £115 million.
Included in the agreement is a sell-on clause for Brighton, ensuring the club’s potential future gains from Caicedo’s career development. The Ecuadorian midfielder is now on the cusp of becoming a Chelsea player, with medical tests already booked to finalize the process.
Caicedo is poised to sign a contract with Chelsea that will extend until June 2031, with an additional option for the 2032 season. This long-term commitment underlines both the player’s potential and Chelsea’s strategic approach to building a strong and enduring team.
The Ecuadorian sensation’s medical examination is scheduled for today, a pivotal step in completing the monumental transfer. Once the medical tests are successfully completed, the final details of the transfer are expected to be swiftly concluded, sealing Caicedo’s move to the Stamford Bridge.
Furthermore, Chelsea’s ambitions in the transfer market do not stop at Caicedo. Another promising midfielder, Romeo Lavia, is on the brink of joining Chelsea, further strengthening the club’s midfield options. The close proximity of these two high-profile signings highlights Chelsea’s determination to fortify their squad for the upcoming challenges.
Brighton & Hove Albion, the club from which Caicedo is departing, has already taken steps to secure a potential replacement. Carlos Baleba, a 2004-born midfielder, has reportedly agreed to personal terms with Brighton. The young talent from Cameroon is seen as a favorable option to fill the void left by Caicedo’s departure.
