Chelsea ‘could pursue’ a deal for Brighton & Hove Albion midfielder Moises Caicedo in the future but his name has not ‘cropped up’ in conversations at Stamford Bridge as of yet, according to transfer insider Dean Jones. Graham Potter has taken over as manager in west London and could look to his former club for new recruits in upcoming windows.
The end of the summer transfer window saw Liverpool submit a £42 million offer for the 20-year-old as Jurgen Klopp looked to bolster his midfield.
It was ultimately rejected while it was understood that Manchester United held an interest in signing Caicedo as well, but the player remained at Brighton beyond the deadline.
Potter was appointed as Chelsea manager after Thomas Tuchel’s controversial sacking this month and will likely have held talks with chairman Todd Boehly and the rest of the board over a recruitment plan.
