Blues hope to pay £80m for Ecuador internationalFour midfielders have left Stamford Bridge this summer
Chelsea intend to hold firm during negotiations over Moisés Caicedo, with Brighton demanding at least £100m for the midfielder.
Caicedo is Chelsea’s main target as they look to reinforce Mauricio Pochettino’s midfield. Although they hope about £80m will be enough to sign the Ecuador international, Brighton believe the benchmark has been set by Declan Rice’s impending £105m move from West Ham to Arsenal.
