Chelsea are ready to up their offer for Brighton midfielder Moises Caicedo.

Chelsea had an offer of £60m rejected by Brighton last week.

However, the Daily Mail says they're returning to Brighton with an improved offer.

The sale of Mason Mount to Manchester United has boosted Chelsea's transfer kitty and they're ready to get closer to the £80mm Brighton are seeking to sell Caicedo.

For his part, the Ecuador international is ready to leave Brighton for Chelsea if a deal can be struck.
