I am surprised at the size of Moises Caicedo's price tag but, after watching Chelsea's draw with Liverpool, it is clear why both teams were battling to sign him from Brighton.
There were plenty of positives for both teams to take away from an exciting game on Sunday, but you could see they are both badly in need of a holding midfielder.
Now it looks like Chelsea have their man. I can understand why they see Caicedo as being the right man for that job, even if a British record fee of £115m seems a lot.
Two sides to the holding role
Caicedo is quick and tenacious, and has got the legs of N'Golo Kante to get around the pitch, spot danger and put out fires.
