Chelsea's midfield maestro Moises Caicedo scored a glorious goal yesterday in the Blues 2-1 win over Bournemouth.

Moises Caicedo beat Cherries goalkeeper Neto from the halfway line when a loose ball broke to the Ecuadorian.

Caicedo's effort has been tipped to win the 2023/2024 Premier League goal of the season ahead of some other fantastic strikes by Manchester United's Garnacho and West Ham's Kudus.

Who wore Chelsea's iconic jersey number 25 before Caicedo?

Before the arrival of Caicedo, Chelsea faithfuls adored the number 25 jersey because it was adorned by a man they love - Gianfranco Zola.

Zola played for the Stamford Bridge outfit between 1996 and 2003, scoring 80 goals (59 in the EPL) and 38 assists in 312 games across all competitions for the club.

The Italian magician was voted Chelsea's greatest-ever player by fans of the West London club, winning 60% of the votes in 2003.

Reports have it that when Roman Abramovic took over at Chelsea, he did everything possible to keep Zola (including offering him an improved contract), but the Italian stuck by his guns because he had already given his word to Cagliari - a club in his native.
