- A Chelsea midfielder has landed in trouble after police seized his car near the club’s training ground at Cobham
- The player was said to have been driving his £160,000 Audi RSQ8 without a valid licence when he was pulled over
- The player widely considered to be Chelsea’s best player this season faces a points deduction, fine or driving ban
A Chelsea player, Moses Caicedo, has landed in trouble after police seized his car close to the club's training ground at Cobham Surrey on Friday, April 4, 2025, for driving without a valid licence.
The 23-year-old Ecuadorian midfielder, who joined Chelsea in 2023 for a record £115million, was heading home after training.

According to Sun UK, further checks are reportedly ongoing to determine if the British record signing has valid insurance. He faces a court summon for driving illegally in the UK and could attract a points penalty, a heavy fine, or a driving ban.
The club has said it is a personal matter and would not comment.
The UK law allows individuals with international driving licence to drive in the UK for 12 months, but must reapply in Britain and pass the mandatory tests afterwards.
Moses Caicedo follows Enzo Fernandes into trouble
It is not the first time a Chelsea player had been caught in a driving offence. Caicedo's midfield partner and £106 million star Enzo Fernandez fell short of the law last year.
According to BBC Sport, Fernandez was banned for six months and fined £3,020 after committing two driving offences in West Wales. First, he failed to identify the driver that drove his Porsche Cayenne through the red light and was also caught speeding a month later.

Both midfielders came to Chelsea from Benfica and Brighton for big fees and have been under scrutiny over their performances, which did not justify their price tags.
This season has been different as both South American midfielders have stepped up for Enzo Maresca's side, with Caicedo, who has played 66 games for Chelsea and scored two goals, being pushed by fans as the player of the season.
Both have captained the club this season, with Fernandez taking responsibility in the absence of permanent captain Reece James, who has struggled with injuries.
Meanwhile, Chelsea have travelled to Poland to face Legia Warsaw in the first leg of the UEFA Europa Conference League quarterfinal.
The UEFA Europa Conference League is the Blues' only chance of silverware this season, and they are widely considered to be the overwhelming favourites.
If they win, Chelsea will become the first club to have won all three UEFA club competitions, having won the Champions League and Europa League twice each.
