Chelsea are 4/5 to sign Brighton midfielder Moises Caicedo in remaining weeks of the window
One of the biggest transfer saga's of the summer transfer window rumbles on on Thursday with Liverpool reportedly outbidding Chelsea for Brighton midfielder Moises Caicedo.
Despite those reports, UK Betting Sites have kept Chelsea as the favourites to sign with those same reports suggesting that the player would prefer a move to the Blues.
The Telegraph's Matt Law reported on Twitter on Thursday morning that Liverpool have outbid Chelsea in what looks to be a game of poker between the two sides.
The latest odds though say there's a 55% chance that Caicedo signs for Chelsea compared to a 47% implied probability from Liverpool's odds.

| Liverpool | 11/10 | 47.6% |
| Stay at Brighton | 12/1 | 7.7% |
What the expert says...
Liverpool 11/10 despite reportedly outbidding Chelsea for the player
Liverpool's odds make them second favourites in the market despite those reports from this morning with other sources suggesting that we could see a bidding war happen.
Popular Liverpool reporter Paul Joyce said in The Times that the club have made contact for Caicedo as part of their due diligence in the outcome that Chelsea don't go for the player.
That suggests then that Liverpool know that Caicedo wants to move to Chelsea and that could well see them then be free to sign Romeo Lavia from Southampton.
