Chelsea have agreed a £29million deal with PSV Eindhoven for Noni Madueke but have seen a £55m bid for Moises Caicedo rejected by Brighton.
Winger Madueke, 20, will complete his move on Friday but Chelsea's hopes of adding midfield target Caicedo were dashed as Brighton rebuffed their offer and said they have no desire to sell this window.
Chelsea tried for Tottenham’s Yves Bissouma also to no avail and may now look at Barcelona's Franck Kessie.
