Real Madrid midfielder Fede Valverde has ruled out a move to Premier League club Chelsea this summer transfer window.

Fede Valverde, when asked on Chelsea links, told ESPN Argentina: “No, no… I’m at Madrid, trying to enjoy every moment and leave my mark on the best club in the world. I wanna keep winning titles for Real Madrid fans.”

According to Sky Sports Germany, Brighton midfielder Moises Caicedo has rejected a move to German champions Bayern Munich.

The 21 year old Ecuadorian midfielder prefers to stay in the Premier League and has chosen a move to Chelsea over Bayern Munich.

The German champions were informed on Thursday, that the Ecuadorian would like to stay on in England. Final negotiations are now underway between Brighton and the Blues.

Premier League rivals Arsenal have pulled out of the race to sign Brighton midfielder Moises Caicedo amid interest from Chelsea, according to Daily Mail.

The Gunners will instead focus on signing West Ham midfielder and captain Declan Rice, who is valued at around £100m by David Moyes’ side.

Brighton’s asking price of £80million for Caicedo plus Chelsea’s interest in the midfielder has driven Arsenal away.
