2025 Fantasy Outlook
Caicedo bounced back in 2024/25, showing flashes of the player Chelsea expected when they signed him. After a somewhat disappointing 2023/24, he contributed one goal, two assists and 114 tackles. Most importantly, he started every Premier League match, anchoring the midfield with consistency and control. Adding Champions League may mean that he's not allowed to rest as much in European play, but it's still expected he'll be around 35 starts in league play, assuming he maintains his health. While the upside isn't there as a defensive midfielder, his variety and consistency from defensive stats provides a decent floor.
Sent off in first half
Caicedo was shown a red card for serious foul play in the 35th minute of Sunday's match against Arsenal and will now serve a three-match domestic suspension.
ANALYSIS
Caicedo would be sent off Sunday following a review from VAR, with the midfielder's yellow card upgraded to a red card for serious foul play. He will now serve a three-match domestic suspension, ruling him out of Wednesday's trip to Leeds United as well as the visit to Bournemouth on Dec. 9. Caicedo will also be banned for Chelsea's next home match against Everton on Dec. 13. He will be eligible to return in domestic competition during the Carabao Cup quarter-final tie away at third-tier Cardiff on Dec. 16. He is a starter, so a change will be forced, with Cole Palmer likely to enter the starting lineup again while Enzo Fernandez moves to a more defensive role until Caicedo is an option again.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Real Madrid could move for him
Real Madrid are expected to make a summer move for Caicedo, according to TEAMTalk.
ANALYSIS
Chelsea have no concern over the future of the 23-year-old Ecuador midfielder despite the fact that Real Madrid are decided to move for him in the summer of 2026. The Blues are expected to offer Caicedo a new contract to ward off interest from Los Merengues, as they feel the former Brighton star is a key player in midfield, and one they wouldn't be able to replace if he were to leave the team.
