There's been talk about his entourage & representation being, let's say, "difficult". As far back as when United was looking into him. There's gossip the agents might be trying to steer this Chelsea's way.

Chelsea got around 220m in sales (Havertz, Mount, Kovacic, Pulisic, Koulibaly, Luftus-Cheek, Mendy etc..) they will get more if they sell Lukaku, CHO, and perhaps some other fringe players like Ziyech and Sarr, they spent around 180m on new players like Nkunku, Disasi, Jackson and Sanchez, I am not sure about their FFP situation but they seem to have sold well this summer so I will not be surprised if they go for both Caicedo and Lavia.
We'll definitely walk away once Chelsea pay the full whack.

Liverpool don’t need to wait. Might as well start walking now. Had their pants pulled down today.We'll definitely walk away once Chelsea pay the full whack.
FFP follows the financial year so last Jan won’t come into this and if clubs overspend now they can sell in Jan to balance it out.
is there another option assuming neither lavia or Caicedo join?We'll definitely walk away once Chelsea pay the full whack.
Yeah, Curtis Jones at CDM.
If we walk then Chelsea can offer only £80m. Why would we do that?
Because the player has said he'd rather go to the dentist every day for the next 5 years than sign for you.If we walk then Chelsea can offer only £80m. Why would we do that?
It doesn’t matter what Liverpool offered as he’s said no to them. So it’s Chelsea or nothing.If we walk then Chelsea can offer only £80m. Why would we do that?
And that's fine by us. Or you cough up £112m.
No but does it really matter? I have been to Nottingham and Manchester though.
It's £112m or nothing to be absolutely, pedantically correct.
We'll probably end up paying more than that.
Guess it was 100-ish and a few add-ons just to make sure to top whatever Chelsea was sending in as a "final bid".
Di Maria doesn't like this.
Well in hindsight it’s a feck up alright, but the thing is, if we signed him, he would not be on sale right now, which means the £111M amount does not exist. And had we signed him, we probably wouldn’t have signed Casemiro etc. So whatever.

Every time chelsea took someone, Chelsea got worse and Brighton got better!
Brighton must adore them. It is unheard of to sell a manager, let alone to sell a manager for a 30m fee. Then Caicedo - he is a brilliant player, but 110m is even better than that for sure
they are being well compensated. And prior to the last two seasons, they finished 15th, 17th and 15th in the PL, having spent a Decade between league 1 and the championship. If they reinvest that money properly (and everything we know suggests that they will) then they could be considered one of the big boys before too long.
I'm prepared to walk away from my relationship with Margot Robbie.
Wait until someone tries to buy Ferguson after he has an unreal season, it will £150 million minimum or dont bother contacting them.
I'm skeptical, because I don't think any club really managed to secure itself in the top strata without massive financial backing (City, PSG) and even perennial members of their respective elite league that have extended golden years don't really manage to entrench their position there... Except maybe Atletico and Borussia ? I'm not sure they count or if they're in-between, big clubs that managed to crawl back after lean years.
