Chelsea has unveiled Moises Caicedo as new player after completing the signing of Ecuador international from Brighton.

VerseNews reports that the club said the 21-year-old midfielder has agreed an eight-year contract at Stamford Bridge, with a club option of a further year.

On completing his move to Chelsea, Caicedo said: “I am so happy to join Chelsea! I am so excited to be here at this big club and I didn’t have to think twice when Chelsea called me, I just knew I wanted to sign for the club. It’s a dream come true to be here and I can’t wait to get started with the team.

Co-sporting directors Laurence Stewart and Paul Winstanley said: “Moises has proved himself as a standout player in European football over the past 18 months, and we are thrilled to add him to Mauricio Pochettino’s squad.
