A lot has been said about Moises Caicedo, since his £115m move to Chelsea from Brighton in the summer of 2023.

Caicedo who turned down Arsenal and Liverpool to sign for Chelsea, had to endure massive criticisms in his debut season at Chelsea.

The Ecuadorian eventually picked up form towards the end of last season, and this season, he has been one of the best players in the Premier League.

For Enzo Maresca, Caicedo is now up there with the likes of Rodri and Declan Rice.

He said: “He is for sure now at that level. No doubt.

“Unfortunately, Rodri is injured but Declan is playing. But I think Moises can sit at that table with that kind of midfielder.”

Moises Caicedo has made 16 appearances for Chelsea this season, scoring 1 goal and providing 2 assists. He has been a key figure in midfield for Chelsea.
