Chelsea still wants to break the bank for a midfielder!

The Blues’ appetite definitely seems limitless. After having notably brought in Mykhaïlo Moudryk in recent weeks, the recruiters of the London club would already have a new idea in mind.

Only tenth in the Premier League standings at mid-season, Chelsea are in the midst of a revolution. Since the transfer market opened its doors, new recruits have been constantly arriving in London. In recent weeks, Mykhaïlo Moudryk, Benoit Badiashile and Noni Madueke have come to strengthen the ranks of the Blues. Added to this is also the loan for six months of João Félix from Atlético Madrid.

While this winter transfer window will only end in ten days, the sum of 178 million euros has already been spent by the Premier League resident. And it might not end there. According to the information gathered by the DailyMirrorthe objective would now be to bring in Moisés Caicedo who is currently playing in Brighton and Hove Albion.

A second offer for Moisés Caicedo filed by Chelsea for Moises Caicedo?

The Ecuadorian indeed achieves convincing performances with the Seagulls. The latter has 18 starts in the league for a record of one goal and one assist this season. Our colleagues specify that Chelsea would have already come on the attack with a first offer amounting to 55 million pounds (62 million euros).

This handsome sum, however, would not have been enough to convince the visibly voracious appetite of the leaders of Brighton. It does not matter for the Blues who intend to come back to the charge. A second proposal around 74 million euros would now be on the table. What is enough? The answer will no doubt be known in the coming weeks.

In the meantime, Chelsea must restart the machine as soon as possible. After 20 Premier League days, Graham Potter’s men are ten points behind Newcastle, current fourth in the Premier League.
