Chelsea set to push ahead with plan to sign Caicedo for around £80m

CHELSEA will step up efforts to sign Moises Caicedo after accepting Manchester United’s £60million offer for Mason Mount last night.
The Blues will now bank more than £200m in players sales in June to help fund efforts to sign their main midfield target from Brighton.
The 21-year-old will be Chelsea’s costliest deal of the transfer window, with Brighton asking for £100m after benchmarking their midfielder’s worth against Declan Rice’s £105m move to Arsenal.
Chelsea have already had a £60m offer rejected, but there is a hope that a fee of around £80m can be agreed.
