Chelsea Play Down Caicedo’s Agent Change as Real Madrid Interest Circulates

Club figures say any sale would require an exceptional bid given his 2031 contract.

Overview

  • Moises Caicedo confirmed he has split from former agent Manuel Sierra and said he has appointed people he can trust, stating he is not represented by Ali Barat.
  • Chelsea sources and reporters describe the club as relaxed about the development, with Enzo Maresca viewing Caicedo as central to his long‑term plans.
  • Real Madrid’s interest has been reported, including talk of a high‑value approach, but there is no indication of a formal bid at this stage.
  • Reports indicate Chelsea are very happy with Caicedo and could consider fresh terms in due course, though a new deal is not described as urgent.
  • Separately, Maresca confirmed Cole Palmer faces roughly six more weeks out, providing immediate context for Chelsea’s midfield and attacking options.
