Liverpool’s Twitter Teases Chelsea About Moises Caicedo Transfer Saga
Rumors have been swirling as fans speculate that Liverpool’s help Twitter account might be engaging in some light-hearted trolling aimed at Chelsea in the ongoing transfer saga involving Brighton and Hove Albion midfielder Moises Caicedo.
After dominating transfer headlines with a potential move to Chelsea for the majority of the summer transfer window, Liverpool abruptly entered the fray on Thursday night with a staggering £111 million bid for Caicedo.
Although an agreement between Liverpool and Brighton was reportedly reached, Caicedo has allegedly communicated to Anfield that his heart is set on a move to Chelsea.
Now, the onus falls on Chelsea to broker a deal with Brighton that exceeds Liverpool’s record-setting British bid.
Yet, news has emerged that Chelsea has yet to table an improved offer for the Brighton midfielder.
On a Saturday afternoon, the official Liverpool FC Help Twitter account shared a tweet that read: “Please be advised Stamford Bridge is a cashless stadium,” just ahead of the Premier League showdown between the two teams scheduled for Sunday.
A segment of fans interpreted this tweet as a sly jab directed at the Stamford Bridge club, cleverly weaving it into the ongoing speculation surrounding the Caicedo transfer saga.

One fan exclaimed, “I KNOW WHAT UR DOING.”
Another chimed in, “You know exactly what you’re doing.”
A third supporter offered, “That’s why they haven’t bid then.”
Someone else mused, “You knew what you were doing with that tweet, didn’t you?”
Meanwhile, a fifth individual commented, “We already know that, struggled for over 24 hours to get some extra millions together!”
Another fan posed the question, “Do I see a cryptic clue in this statement?”
Renowned transfer insider Fabrizio Romano provided a recent update on the Caicedo transfer situation.
He tweeted, “Crucial, final day ahead. Caicedo also tonight has been clear with Brighton as he was with Liverpool around lunch time: he wants to be sold to Chelsea. Official bid to follow, won’t be less than £110m.”
Liverpool and Chelsea are slated to cross paths at Stamford Bridge on Sunday, marking the commencement of their 2023/2024 Premier League campaign.
