MOISES CAICEDO made it clear he wanted to leave Brighton by clearing out his locker before Chelsea completed the record signing.
Caicedo is now officially a Chelsea player after finalising his £115million move to the club in what has been the summer’s most dramatic transfer saga.
The deal saw plenty of drama after both Chelsea and Liverpool agreed deals for Caicedo, with the Ecuadorian ultimately snubbing the Reds in favour of a move to Stamford Bridge.
But it wasn’t plane sailing for the 21-year-old to secure a deal away from Brighton with the South Coast side determined to get the right price for their man.
And according to The Telegraph, this meant Caicedo doing everything he could to force the move.
