Moises Caicedo admits a call from Enzo Fernandez helped him choose Chelsea in August.
As he was leaving Brighton, Caicedo also had a big offer from Liverpool before Enzo's intervention.
He told the club's website: "It was a nice chat.
"I mean, the fact that a world champion was phoning you, one of the best midfielders in the world receiving that call was very nice and he convinced me to come here.
"He said it was a great club, that there are many young players, there was a togetherness here.
"I have always enjoyed the bond in a team because I think that, if there is that bond, we can deal with any situation we may face: pressure, everything. So, that's what motivated me to come here.
Now, I'm enjoying playing alongside him, in training as well, in rondos. We are always together.
"So, I'm very happy and I'm trying to do things better every day, as Enzo said, to be a good example for everyone at the club."
