Chelsea interested in signing Brighton’s Moises Caicedo and Leandro Trossard

Chelsea Football Club are reportedly interested in signing Brighton & Hove Albion’s Moses Caicedo this January.

According to Sportsmail, the Blues could be set to return to Brighton for their next targets in Ecuadorian midfielder Caicedo and Trossard.

On Sunday, the Blues unveiled their fourth signing of the January transfer window with the £88million capture of Ukrainian forward Mykhailo Mudryk.

Mudryk followed the arrivals of Benoit Badiashile, David Datro Fofana and the loan deal for Joao Felix, who have all joined the London club this month.

As well as Chelsea, Trossard remains of interest to Tottenham, who are also speaking to Sporting Lisbon about Pedro Porro this week.

Trossard’s contract expires at the end of the season, though the Seagulls are understood to have an option to extend his contract by 12 months.

Any approach from Chelsea would mark another raid on Brighton after they signed Marc Cucurella in the summer, and then poached Graham Potter and his staff from The Amex to replace Thomas Tuchel in September.
