The third round of the Carabao Cup is in dispute, and this Wednesday, September 27, two Ecuadorians will face each other in a qualifying round. Moisés Caicedo’s Chelsea will face Brighton, his former team, where Pervis Estupiñán plays.
Both teams come to this clash with different realities. While the Blues have failed to win three games in a row, the Seagulls are third in the Premier League having won five wins in six games.
But this commitment will also mark the reunion between Roberto De Zerbi and Caicedo, who was his student in the Brighton team, in addition to the Spanish goalkeeper Robert Sánchez.
“I’m looking forward to seeing them; I will always be happy to greet my former players. Now they are not with us, but I will hug them with pleasure,” said the Italian coach.
“We have always known that a new project is difficult. The situation was a bit unstable this preseason,” he added.
Regarding Chelsea’s current situation, coach De Zerbi said: “We have great respect for Pochettino and Chelsea. “They have a great team, but I don’t know about the problems they have.” (D)
