Ecuadors Moises Caicedo inked an eight-year agreement upon transferring from Brighton and Hove Albion in 2023 for what was then a British record fee of 115 million pounds (156.27 million dollars).

I am confident in this squad, this team and I sense we are heading the correct way. We have only started our journey as one, Caicedo commented in an official release. I aim to secure additional silverware for Chelsea and devote myself fully to the team and supporters.

We have shared some memorable moments so far and my ambition is to etch my name as a Chelsea icon, and I shall strive relentlessly to achieve that, he continued.

Caicedo faced early challenges in recreating his Brighton achievements at Chelsea during Mauricio Pochettinos tenure, yet Enzo Marrescas arrival in 2024 brought significant improvement.

The Italian coach positioned Caicedo in a central midfield role, emphasising defensive protection and game rhythm control.

Following Chelseas victories in the Conference League and Club World Cup, Caicedo earned the West London outfits player of the year and players player of the year honours.

Caicedo has established himself as one of Chelseas steadiest performers, with over 40 outings in various tournaments this term, and he has donned the captains band from time to time.
