Liverpool Makes £100 Million Bid for Caicedo, Chelsea’s Prime Target
According to Football Insider, Liverpool is determined to secure the top target of Chelsea’s midfield this summer.
Moises Caicedo is one of the most sought-after midfielders in the Premier League during this summer transfer window. With impressive performances at Amex, Brighton has every reason to demand £100 million for any team wishing to acquire the Ecuadorian international.
Chelsea is currently the club most strongly linked with Caicedo, but other teams in the UK or even representatives from Saudi Arabia are also highly interested in the 21-year-old talent. Evaluations suggest that sooner or later, Brighton’s “sweeper” will land at Stamford Bridge this summer. However, a recent development might change everything.
Specifically, according to Football Insider, Liverpool has submitted a £100 million offer to Brighton to acquire Caicedo. The source asserts that the Red Brigade has entered the race and intends to compete with Chelsea for the signature of the Ecuadorian player. Although The Blues have been in contact with the south-coast club in recent weeks, they have yet to reach an agreement with The Seagulls.
In the current circumstances, the substantial amount from The Reds could certainly sway Brighton, as Caicedo has already expressed his intention to leave from the beginning of the summer.
