Chelsea will travel to Sweden's Juergen Koninklijke in the first leg of the 2024/25 UEFA European Association League semi-final. Chelsea midfielder Caicedo said the team will do its best in the game to win the European Championship and believes the team will win.
In the quarter-finals of the UEFA Europa League, Chelsea defeated Legia Warsaw 4-2 on aggregate and secured a ticket to the semi-finals. In addition, Chelsea beat Everton 1-0 at Stamford Bridge in the Premier League earlier in the campaign thanks to Jackson's goal, setting the stage for the match against Juventus.
The 23-year-old Caicedo said, "We know that every game is not easy, so we will enter the game with a strong mentality of our opponent, but at the same time we will face this game with a strong ambition to win. We will do our best in the game. We know they will be a very tough opponent, especially at their home court. So we must play well and play in our own way, and I believe the team can go home with a victory."
“Winning the Europa League would mean a lot to me. It’s a European trophy and every player dreams of winning a European competition. Everyone at Chelsea firmly believes that as long as we work hard enough, we can win this trophy.”
Caicedo continued, “We also know that it is not easy and there are still a few steps to go to win the championship, but we will do our best to win this trophy.”
“I can’t wait to compete because this will be my first international championship trophy in my career, so the most important thing I want to do is win the championship and dedicate it to God and my family.”
As for the current state of Chelsea's lineup, coach Maresca said in an interview, "Robert Sanchez was hit in the game against Everton, so there was a small problem, and Nkunku had a similar situation in training. This just happened, and we may have to wait until we return to London to have clearer news."
“It will be a great moment and a big game and we have a chance to get to the final. We have been emphasising since the beginning of the season that we need to take one step at a time and now we have to do our best to take the next step and get to the final.”
