How Moises Caicedo responded to being directly asked if he is joining Chelsea this summer
Moises Caicedo remained tight-lipped when asked directly if he was going to be joining Chelsea this summer.
A video published on the Sports Illustrated TikTok account saw him let out a wry smile, however refuse to speak on the matter.
Attempts to sign Caicedo have been well-documented throughout the entire window so far, with a number of bids being swiftly rejected.
It is believed that Brighton value the Ecuador international alongside Declan Rice, who has recently move for a British record fee to Arsenal.
Chelsea are less keen to pay that figure, and are not willing to include defender Levi Colwill in any potential deal.

These stipulations have seen things come to a bit of a standstill regarding the deal, with the Seagulls notorious for sticking to their guns when it comes to negotiations.
The Blues have left their efforts to bring in a top midfielder a bit later than they would have liked up to now, and this could see them paying what they consider to be over the odds for the deal.
It has been claimed many times that convincing the player to join them is not going to be difficult, with personal terms already agreed between the two parties.
This can also be read from his response to being asked if he was going to be playing at Stamford Bridge next season, where he refused to rule out the prospect of a transfer whilst he was signing shirts for supporters.
With less than three weeks to go until the Premier League campaign gets underway, Mauricio Pochettino will have wanted the scenario to be sorted by now as he looks to pick a team that can beat Liverpool on the opening day of the season.
