The transfer of Moises Caicedo with the climax of many interesting openings has ended: the Ecuadorian midfielder will join Chelsea for a transfer fee of 115 million pounds.
This morning, according to Vietnam time, two leading journalists David Ornstein and Fabrizio Romano simultaneously confirmed that Chelsea and Brighton had reached an agreement on the transfer fee of midfielder Moises Caicedo.

There was a time in the middle of last week, it seemed that Moises Caicedo would join Liverpool when the Port team and “Seagull” Brighton finished the fee of 110 million pounds and the Ecuadorian midfielder also accepted to “book” the test schedule. healthcare in Liverpool.
However, Chelsea – the team Caicedo ALWAYS preferred to join if he left Brighton – was back in the race. On the one hand Chelsea and Caicedo have already reached a contract agreement, on the other hand the Blues assure Brighton will offer a price equal to or more than Liverpool’s figure.

There is no official information on Caicedo’s salary at Chelsea, but the number will certainly not be less than £ 200,000 / week. Today, Caicedo will travel to Cobham to undergo a medical test, before officially launching his new club Chelsea.
