According to a report by the Daily Telegraph, Moises Caicedo has a bright and long-term future at Chelsea heading into the summer transfer window. Recent updates have suggested that the Ecuadorian international is a target for big-spending Saudi Pro League clubs. However, the Blues want to tie their Player of the Season to a new long-term contract after the 2024/25 season ends.
Moises Caicedo has established himself as one of the best midfielders in the Premier League since joining Chelsea from Brighton & Hove Albion in August 2023. The South American prospect endured some teething problems at the West London club, struggling to make his mark in the first half of his debut season at Stamford Bridge.
However, the 23-year-old has not looked back since establishing a foothold in the first-team squad at Chelsea. Caicedo has gone from strength to strength in the last 18 months, becoming a leader in the middle of the park for the West London club. The young midfielder has turned out nearly 100 times thus far for Chelsea while chipping in with two goals and nine assists.
Meanwhile, Caicedo’s exploits for Chelsea have not gone unnoticed, capturing the attention of several well-known clubs across Europe. In addition, big-spending Saudi Pro League outfits are keen on signing the Ecuadorian international in the summer transfer window.
While Moises Caicedo is a big-money contract for Saudi Pro League bigwigs and other well-known clubs, he will unlikely depart from Stamford Bridge in the summer transfer window. Recent reports have claimed that Chelsea will not entertain any bids to part ways with the highly-rated midfielder in the coming months.
Instead, the Blues want to tie the former Brighton & Hove Albion midfielder to a new contract. Chelsea will approach Caicedo, who has won the Men’s Player of the Season & Players’ Player of the Season this season, to hold talks over a new long-term contract after the 2024/25 season ends.
Chelsea’s stance is hardly surprising, considering the 23-year-old award-winning midfielder’s stature at the West London club. So, it will be shocking to see the Ecuadorian international departing from Stamford Bridge anytime soon.
