I mean, the fact that a world champion was phoning you, one of the best midfielders in the world," Caicedo told Sky Sports' Big Interview, alongside Fernandez. "Receiving that call was very nice and he convinced me to come here.
"Now, I'm enjoying playing alongside him, in training as well, in rondos. We are always together. So, I'm very happy and I'm trying to do things better every day, as Enzo said, to be a good example for everyone at the club."
