CHELSEA have confirmed that they are delighted to announce that Olutayo Subuloye has signed his first professional contract with the club, shortly after celebrating his 17th birthday.
Chelsea have been working very hard over the past few months making sure that some of the clubs very best talents are not allowed to leave and join rival clubs, and have signed up quite a few of the academy players.
Now, Subuloye, is the latest young player to get signed up by the club after impressing in the younger ranks, –The club posted: ‘The Academy defender has progressed through the age groups since joining the Blues from Brighton & Hove Albion at Under-12s level.
In a successful 2023/24 campaign, he lifted the Under-16 Premier League National Tournament trophy and played a key role in our Under-17 Premier League Cup triumph, beating Wolverhampton Wanderers 3-2 in the final at Molineux.
Subuloye is experiencing his first full season with the Under-18s in 2024/25 and scored his first goal at that level in September’s 6-2 home win over Aston Villa. His performances for Chelsea earned him a call-up to represent England Under-18s in October.
Congratulations Tayo!

The lad is a serious talent and fans are delighted to see that he has agreed to sign a new contract at Stamford Bridge, he fully deserves it and now hopefully he will push on to challenge for a regular place in that first starting eleven.
However – the problem that he has is that the club have so many quality players at the club already that it will take some time for him to get the chances he needs to prove himself.
And with the club making signings pretty much every window, well hopefully he does not get lost in the system guys
