Moises Caicedo: It would be impossible to reject Chelsea

<p>

Moises Caicedo admits he would be unable to turn down a move to Chelsea this summer. </p>

<p>

The Brighton midfielder is the Blues' top target to replenish their midfield following the summer departures of several key players. </p>

<p>

Chelsea have been in talks with Brighton over a summer deal, but negotiations have proven difficult. Brighton have set a £100m price tag for Caicedo, which is based on the fee that Declan Rice is set to move to Arsenal for. </p>

<p>

Chelsea are not willing to meet this price, but Caicedo has said he would be open to a move to the Blues. </p>

<p>

"It's a big team, that's true," he told Maria Jose Flores when asked about Chelsea. </p>

<p>

"A very historic team and I can't say no, because it's a very big, historic, beautiful team. </p>

<p>

"The city as well is beautiful. It's got everything beautiful." </p>

<p>

Brighton have also expressed an interest in seeing Chelsea offer center-back Levi Colwill as part of any bid for Caicedo, but the Blues have made it clear that they are not entertaining such an idea. </p>

<p>

Colwill is due to report back for pre-season training with Chelsea in the coming days. </p>

<p>

It remains to be seen whether Chelsea will be able to agree a deal for Caicedo, but the midfielder has made it clear that he would be open to a move to the club. </p>

<p>

The Blues are also likely to face competition from other clubs for Colwill's signature, but they are determined to keep the highly-rated defender. </p>
