With arrangements in place since March, Fabrizio Romano has indicated that Chelsea will move forward in negotiations.
Chelsea ultimately secured their place in the Champions League for the following season on the final day of the Premier League season. The Blues defeated Nottingham Forest 1-0 on the road at the City Ground to secure the victory they needed. It was Levi Colwill who scored the winning goal for Enzo Maresca’s team.
It was understandable for the Blues’ players, staff, and fans to celebrate last night after missing out on the Champions League the previous two seasons. Fabrizio Romano then brought Chelsea fans some more fantastic news shortly after.
Romano stated that in the upcoming months, Chelsea will move forward with negotiations to extend Moises Caicedo’s contract. Since March, talks to sign the midfield player to a new contract have been planned.
Caicedo has had a fantastic season and made a name for himself as a vital component of Chelsea under Maresca. His significance to this team is demonstrated by his wins of Player of the Season and Players’ Player of the Season awards from the club.
Chelsea’s negotiations with Moises Caicedo will proceed, according to Fabrizio Romano.
Despite the fact that other Chelsea players have had their moments, it was well worth it. The only player to be consistently excellent throughout the season is Caicedo.
Caicedo was under a lot of pressure since Romeo Lavia’s ongoing injury issues had left the Blues extremely exposed in midfield. But the Ecuadorian midfielder seems to be able to handle it, playing in such a demanding position each week and being amazingly consistent.
Therefore, giving him an extension seems like a rather obvious choice. In order to recruit him, the Blues paid Brighton & Hove Albion a transfer fee, which was much discussed. But all of a sudden, no one appears to be discussing it anymore because the Ecuadorian has shown his value by his performances.
