The manager offered no definitive indication that the winger's situation has been resolved, leaving the matter open as attention continues to surround Chelsea's plans.

Neto's position is another storyline for the club to manage, particularly with questions still hanging over the make-up of Alonso's squad. For now, the message from the Chelsea camp appears to be one of caution, both on Caicedo's fitness and on Neto's next steps.

The win over Brighton ensures Chelsea can take confidence from the performance and the result, but Alonso's post-match remarks underlined that not everything was straightforward. Caicedo's injury will be the most immediate concern, while Neto's future remains one of the unresolved issues at Stamford Bridge.
