Plays first preseason minutes Caicedo played his first preseason minutes for Chelsea in Wednesday's friendly against Juventus, the club announced.

Impact Caicedo comes into the new season as the undisputed engine of Chelsea's midfield after another strong campaign, starting 32 Premier League matches while piling up three goals, 87 tackles and 59 interceptions, a tireless defensive presence who has also grown more comfortable pushing forward into attack. Ecuador's round of 32 exit at the World Cup means he is back with the group at a reasonably early stage of preseason under coach Xabi Alonso, and he's set to remain a fixture in the lineup once the campaign kicks off. Caicedo is expected to keep sharpening his match fitness as preseason continues.

Joins Chelsea's tour in Sydney Caicedo has joined Chelsea's squad in Sydney for the club's preseason tour, according to the club.

Impact Caicedo captained Ecuador at the World Cup, finishing the tournament with four shots and nine chances created going forward while contributing nine tackles, four interceptions, four clearances and one block defensively across four matches before elimination in the round of 32 against co-hosts Mexico. After a short break following the tournament, his arrival in Sydney now shifts the focus to preseason preparations under new coach Xabi Alonso as Chelsea's tour continues.

Mixed display in elimination Caicedo registered one shot (zero on goal), six crosses (zero accurate) and three corners in Tuesday's 2-0 defeat against Mexico. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 99t...

Impact Caicedo was Ecuador's set piece taker in the first half and registered his highest cross tally of the tournament with six, but could not find a teammate with any of them. He kept trying to unlock Mexico's defence with long balls into the opposition half and created a big chance that Kevin Rodriguez was unable to convert. His one tackle of the night was a last man challenge that stopped a counter attack and prevented the scoreline from getting worse, a crucial intervention in what was a balanced display from the Chelsea midfielder. It was not enough to avoid elimination however, and he ends the tournament with four shots and nine chances created going forward while contributing nine tackles, four interceptions, four clearances and one block defensively across four games.

Plays all 90 minutes Caicedo generated one shot (zero on goal), one cross (one accurate) and one chance created in Thursday's 2-1 win against Germany.

Impact Caicedo closed out his final group stage match Thursday with an 89 percent pass accuracy, 13 passes into the final third, four tackles, and four duels won, reinforcing how central he is to Ecuador's midfield structure. The Chelsea midfielder has been a steady two-way presence throughout the tournament, consistently influencing play on both ends of the pitch and showcasing exceptional distribution, highlighted by his sustained 89 percent pass accuracy and more than 200 accurate passes completed overall.

Five crosses in 0-0 draw Caicedo generated one shot (one on goal), five crosses (three accurate) and two corners in Saturday's 0-0 draw against Curacao.

Impact Caicedo played 90 minutes for the second game of the World Cup as Ecuador drew 0-0 with Curacao to pick up their first point. He will be looking to lead them to the next round with a victory against Germany in teh final group game. He created four chances in this game, bringing his total to seven chances created for the tournament. He completed three of his five crosses and also completed 100 passes to show the dominance that his Ecuador side had over their opponents.

Solid option in holding midfield Caicedo should see significant action in the upcoming World Cup given his status as one of Ecuador's most well-rounded assets.

Impact Caicedo will once again anchor Ecuador's midfield after another strong campaign in the English Premier League. The central man provides value through ball recoveries, tackles and possession retention rather than direct goal contributions, but he can occasionally push forward to support in playmaking tasks. His ability to disrupt opposing attacks while keeping the ball moving efficiently is a major reason Ecuador has become such a difficult team to break down. While he's unlikely to score or assist frequently, his balanced workload and defensive production remain attractive in deeper fantasy formats.

Signs new contract Caicedo has inked a new contract with Chelsea, according to his club.

Impact Caicedo is going to remain a part of the Blues for the next few seasons, as the midfielder is inking a new deal until 2033. This is a major mark for the Ecuadorian, as it is clear he is a part of the club's future, continuing their trend of locking up young talent for numerous years. He has been a starter since transferring to the club from Brighton in the 2023/24 season, notching five goals and six assists in 100 appearances.
