English Premier League giants Chelsea FC are generating massive sports coverage after officially confirming their squad numbers for the 2026/27 season ahead of their opening league fixtures.
The primary talking point driving discussion across fanbases is Brazilian forward João Pedro taking over the famous No. 9 shirt.
The decision places significant focus on the striker to overcome the infamous "No. 9 curse" at Stamford Bridge, which previously affected high-profile predecessors including Fernando Torres, Romelu Lukaku, and Gonzalo Higuaín.
Additionally, fans and media outlets are tracking squad number allocations for high-profile new signings and returning players:
- Liam Delap takes No. 12.
- Jordan Henderson assigned No. 14.
- Morgan Rogers takes No. 17.
- Valentín Barco wears No. 4.
- Cole Palmer retains his landmark No. 10 jersey.
