Reports have claimed when Chelsea expect their prospective new signing Moises Caicedo to make his debut for his new club.
According to The Times, the Blues are hoping for him to be available as early as Sunday for the London derby against West Ham United.
It was reported late last night that Chelsea had finally agreed a fee to bring in Caicedo after a gruelling summer of negotiations with Brighton.
They seemed to establish the 21-year-old as the number one target to partner Enzo Fernandez in the middle of the park going forwards.
Based on the display the Argentine put in against Liverpool yesterday, there is the potential for one of the strongest midfield partnerships in the league.
