MOISES CAICEDO will wear the No25 shirt for Chelsea following his £115million transfer from Brighton.
The Ecuadorian, 21, snubbed Liverpool to clinch a move to Stamford Bridge on Monday.
Moises Caicedo has been given the No25 shirt by ChelseaChelsea website
And his shirt has now been spotted in the Chelsea store as he prepares to pull on the No25.
The number was most recently worn by ex-Blues left-back Emerson Palmieri.
But that is not the No25 most Chelsea supporters think of when they see the shirt.
That’s because legendary Italian forward Gianfranco Zola donned the number for seven years between 1996 and 2003.
Zola, 57, contributed 79 goals and 29 assists in 311 appearances during his iconic spell at the club.
He won two FA Cups, the League Cup, Uefa Cup Winners’ Cup and Uefa Super Cup in a Chelsea shirt.
It means Caicedo has a lot to live up to as he arrives for a club record fee.
Reacting to him being given the No25, one Blues fan said: “I know what I am getting on the back .”

Another added: “Wow… Gianfranco Zola is back after 2 decades…!”
And a third replied: “Just awesome .”
After completing his move from Brighton, Caicedo said: “I am so happy to join Chelsea.
“I am so excited to be here at this big club and I didn’t have to think twice when Chelsea called me, I just knew I wanted to sign for the club.
“It’s a dream come true to be here and I can’t wait to get started with the team.”
Caicedo’s Chelsea debut could come away at West Ham in the Premier League on Sunday.
