Chelsea midfielder Moises Caicedo has been handed an eight-point driving penalty and a financial fine after being caught driving his luxury £160,000 supercar without a valid licence or insurance near the club's training ground.  The incident places Caicedo just four points away from a potential ban, adding off-field drama to his current struggles with injury in the ongoing season.

Portugal's captain and all-time leading scorer said a subsequent meeting with Jesus, attended by his club side Al Nassr's sporting d...
