Moisés Caicedo took over the position of midfielder for the Ecuadorian team, which earned him the opportunity for the English clubs to make economic offers to Independiente del Valle to acquire their sports rights.

And in an analysis of Brighton’s assumption of the flyer, journalist Tim Vickery said on the network Skysports: “Whatever the price (of the sale), it looks like it’s going to be a robbery because if this kid were Brazilian they would add zero ($ 60 million) to the value of his transfer.”
“I have no doubts about Caicedo as a player, a midfielder with the skills to play from area to area,” added Vickery, who is a correspondent for. Skysports in South America.
Regarding the 19-year-old midfielder’s acclimatization to England, the journalist noted: “ My only doubt as a human being is whether he will be able to get through the adjustment process, which is usually not easy, especially for those from the North. South America, Ecuadorians and Colombians. “
And before the rumors denied by Graham Potter, the Brighton coach, about a possible loan to Union Saint Gilloise from Belgium’s second division, Vickery stressed: “I don’t see the point in that, they should treat him like a special player. and give him to Belgium, not that it will help him develop his skills or help him learn English ”.
“Hopefully Brighton can make him feel special, because I think they have a special talent in Moisés,” he concluded.
