With Moises Caicedo still to make his debut for Brighton & Hove Albion, there’s not only a big expectation from fans to see him in action, but from peopleĀ in Ecuador as well.

The midfielder’s move to the Premier League continues to be a big topic in the local media, and sometimes conversations that have nothing to do with him end up giving him a mention.

That’s the case of an interview which Santiago Escobar, who’s the manager of Universidad CatĆ³lica, gave to RĆ”dio Ɓrea Deportiva this week. He spoke about several subjects, and Caicedo’s move to Brighton was one of them.

“Caicedo was the revelation of last year in Ecuadorian football together with JosĆ© CarabalĆ­, and Moises was greatly enhanced with Miguel RamĆ­rez. And with Professor Alfaro he has also got a placeĀ at the national team,”Ā said Escobar (via Studio Futbol).

“He has a lot of personality, knows how to make decisions and his stats are very positive. I think that boy has no ceiling, for his age, Ecuador has Moises Caicedo for a while.”

Following aĀ ā‚¬5m move from Independiente Del Valle, Moises Caicedo is registered by Brighton for the remainder of the season and currently waits for his chance to make his debut.

He’s signed a four-and-half-year contract with the club, and in recent interviews has beenĀ explaining he’s pretty excited with the move, claiming he wants ‘to be a starter as soon as possible’.
