Chelsea Give Liam Delap No. 12 Shirt, Previously Worn by Mikel and Victor Moses
Chelsea have reassigned Liam Delap from the club's No. 9 shirt to No. 12 ahead of the 2026/27 season. João Pedro takes over the No. 9 after scoring 20 goals in 50 appearances last season. Delap scored twice in 41 matches in his first Chelsea campaign and is reportedly among players training away from the main squad. Reports say Chelsea are willing to consider offers for the 23-year-old striker. The No. 12 shirt has a notable Nigerian connection at Stamford Bridge. John Obi Mikel wore it during his trophy-filled Chelsea career, while Victor Moses also wore the number during the 2013/14 season.
