News about Moises Caicedo, Romeo Lavia, and Michael Olise are among the most recent Blues updates from the summer transfer window.
Moises Caicedo twist.
Despite Liverpool’s £110 million deal with Brighton for Moises Caicedo, it appears as though Chelsea could sign both players. Romeo Lavia and Moises Caicedo.
Even though Jurgen Klopp acknowledged that a deal had been reached, according to transfer guru Fabrizio Romano, Liverpool could now completely withdraw from the race to sign Caicedo due to a stunning development.
Chelsea was still confident they could sign Caicedo in spite of Liverpool’s triple-figure offer, and a new offer is currently being prepared that will be a vast improvement over their previous few offers.
The club record £105 million deal that brought Enzo Fernandez from Benfica earlier this year could be broken, according to Sky Sports reporter Dharmesh Sheth, as the offer could be as high as £115 million.
Romeo Lavia Battle
football.london has been informed that Chelsea is’seriously moving’ to sign Moises Caicedo from Southampton as well as Romeo Lavia from Southampton.
Despite Chelsea having a bid on the table that outbids Liverpool’s highest offer, Liverpool was still considered the front-runners to sign the teenager for their midfield.
According to information available to football.london, the proposal is for £52 million, plus an additional $3 million in add-ons.
Chelsea made a late-summer offer to Lavia last year, but Southampton quickly turned it down.
Due to the fact that Lavia’s former Saints manager Joe Shields now resides in west London, Chelsea have renewed their interest in the midfielder.
Michael Olise boost
To give Chelsea a significant transfer boost, Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has selected him to replace Riyad Mahrez. Rayan Cherki, Mohammed Kudus, and Michael Olise were three attacking targets the Blues had identified that they might sign this summer.
Man City was also interested in Michael Olise.
Football and Chelsea have already spoken with Olise’s entourage. The French winger, according to information in London, is eager to relocate to west London. Chelsea already appeared to be in the lead, but Man City has given them a further boost in terms of their transfer hopes.
According to transfer guru Fabrizio Romano, Man City have been negotiating with Stade Rennais for Jeremy Doku’s services for a number of weeks, with both Lucas Paqueta and Doku being their top priorities after that. Both Olise and the Belgian international were options for Guardiola, but a swift Doku transfer and improved personal terms appear to have given Chelsea the incentive to move for Olise. The Telegraph reports that the French club values him at between €50 million (£43.1 million) and €60 million (£51.8 million).

Chelsea made a bid that comes the closest to valuation amid Romeo Lavia a transfer target for Liverpool.
Chelsea has made a £48 million offer to Southampton for 19-year-old Belgian midfielder Romeo Lavia in an effort to get a jump on Liverpool.
According to reports, Chelsea has made a £48 million offer for Romeo Lavia in an effort to sabotage Liverpool’s pursuit of the Southampton midfielder.
Weeks of negotiations have gone by with no resolution between Liverpool and the Saints due to the Reds’ objections to their £50 million asking price.
The Championship club swiftly rejected their most recent offer, which was for £45 million, which was sent earlier this week. The Athletic reports that Chelsea’s offer, which is reportedly worth £48 million plus add-ons, is currently the closest to matching Southampton’s asking price.
It is unclear whether the offer will be accepted, but if it is, Liverpool may have to prepare for the terrifying possibility that Lavia will face them on Sunday when they visit Stamford Bridge.
A £90 million deal for Brighton midfielder Moises Caicedo is also about to be finalized by Chelsea.
After being locked in discussions with the Seagulls all summer, Mauricio Pochettino’s team is hoping to finalize a deal for the Ecuadorian star before the weekend.
Chelsea has long been a fan of Lavia, but it seemed that they were more interested in Caicedo and Leeds midfielder Tyler Adams, who is currently heavily linked with a £20 million transfer to Stamford Bridge. However, it now seems possible that they will sign all three players.
It would be devastating for Liverpool to lose out on Lavia, especially after losing out to Real Madrid in the race for Jude Bellingham earlier this year and losing both Jordan Henderson and Fabinho in recent weeks.
Following the addition of attacking midfielders Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai, Jurgen Klopp believes Lavia is the best choice to take Fabinho’s place at the base of Liverpool’s midfield.
