Enzo Maresca’s side are worth significantly more than every team in the competition, participating with a squad that cost Todd Boehly and co over £1 billion to assemble.
They won all matches in the group stage and did not lose until their last match against Legia Warsaw at Stamford, excluding the loss to Servette in the qualifiers.
Caicedo rallies Chelsea teammates
Ecuadorian midfielder Moises Caicedo has sent a message to his teammates ahead of the first leg of their semi-final clash against Swiss club Djurgarden tomorrow.
The first leg will be played at the 3Arena in Stockholm, Sweden, tomorrow, before the return leg at Stamford Bridge a week later.
“We know that every game is tough, so we will head into it with the mentality that the opposition will be very tough, but with the desire we have of wanting to win the game,” Caicedo told Chelsea’s official website.
“We will do everything in this game, everything. We know that they will be a very tough opposition, especially at their ground. So, we have to do things well, play our game, and I’m sure we’ll be able to bring home a win.”
The men's team are yet to win a trophy under the Todd Boehly era, and for most of the young squad, they are yet to win a senior trophy in their career. Caicedo says it would be a dream to win.

“Winning the Conference League would mean a lot to me. It’s a European title, and every player dreams of winning European titles. And, well, everyone at Chelsea is convinced that we can win it,” he added.
Chelsea to debut FOS sponsor
The Blues have played the majority of this season without a front-of-shirt sponsor after their deal with Infinite Athlete last season for the same purpose expired.
The owners are reportedly hopeful of securing Champions League football next season to negotiate a big deal as they eye a deal worth at least £60 million per season.
However, per an official statement, they confirmed that Dubai real estate firm Damac Properties will be on the men's and women's team shirts for the rest of the season.
Beyond this season, the company will partner with the club to develop the Chelsea Residence in Dubai, the first-of-its-kind football-themed branded residences.
