"Chelsea's Record-Breaking Signing of Moisés Caicedo: A Game-Changer for the Club"

Moisés Caicedo, an Ecuadorian midfielder, has become the most expensive player in British soccer history after Chelsea agreed to pay a record-breaking fee of £115 million ($146 million) to Brighton & Hove Albion. The 21-year-old's transfer was pending a medical, which has now been completed, and both clubs have confirmed the deal. Caicedo was also pursued by Liverpool, but Chelsea ultimately secured his signature. He will join Chelsea's midfield alongside Enzo Fernández, forming a new-look squad aiming to improve on last season's 12th place finish in the Premier League.

"Thiago Almada's MLS-record transfer could be worth it for Atlanta United after 5-1 victory over Portland Timbers"

Atlanta United's Thiago Almada's impressive form and inclusion in Argentina's national team could see him challenge the MLS transfer record set by Miguel Almiron. Almada's teammate Derrick Etienne Jr. said "you're going to have to break the bank" to sign the 21-year-old midfielder. Almada's two goals and two assists in Atlanta's 5-1 win over Portland make him the first player in MLS history to have at least four goals and four assists in his team's first four matches of a season. Head coach Gonzalo Pineda praised Almada's work ethic and maturity.
