“Years ago, I predicted that he would become a world-class player, and some even called me crazy.” Chelsea legend Didier Drogba claims that Chelsea’s “generational talent” is now proving the doubters, particularly those who support Manchester United and Arsenal, wrong.
In his analysis of Chelsea’s ideal acquisition, Didier Drogba singled out one star who has developed into a generational talent.
Moses Caicedo, who joined the blues last summer with a British record of £110 million, has received a ton of praise from the blues legend.
For the upcoming blues season, he made it abundantly evident that Moses was destined for greater things.
After moving to West London in the summer of last year, the former Brighton midfielder struggled to find his old team. Along with his teammates, he had a challenging season where he lost a lot of possessions during touches.
Conor Gallagher and Caicedo worked well together to secure midfield in the face of injuries that may have ended Enzo Fernandez’s career.
Moses has been playing at his best, according to Didier Drogba, who attributed his success to Conor Gallagher—who was reportedly on his way out of Stamford Bridge.
Pundit discussed the Handbreak Off Podcast’s Caicedo.
“I recall that we wrote a piece about it when he initially received jersey number 25. We have been discussing Moses from the Chelsea point of view. People laughed at me when I mentioned that he was a generational talent, claiming that I was too close to it.
However, upon observing him, it becomes evident that, in addition to his incredible skill, he also plays with great intelligence and teamwork as his primary focus, Drogba added.
Although Caicedo is a gifted musician who transcends generations, he hasn’t always had an easy time getting where he is.
The 22-year-old, who has only three assists in all competitions, was able to score the Blues’ first goal during their final matchup with AFC Bournmouth.
Chelsea is now looking to add more depth to their midfield after putting Conor Gallagher under consideration for a potential move.
