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 we 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.
Great news for the lad, but as we just said, he needs to push on and work hard now
CASEDAI LEAVING
CHELSEA fans have been told that midfielder Cesare Casedai has now decided to leave Stamford Bridge in the January window, amid speculation that the Blues are close to an agreement with AC Milan over a loan deal.
The 21-year-old has played a little over ten times for the Blues and while he was close to departing the club in the summer, potentially on a loan deal, he ended up staying at Stamford Bridge.
He’s yet to play in the Premier League in the campaign, and despite the manager not picking him, Casadei has revealed to TuttoSport in an interview that Enzo Maresca played a key role in keeping him at Stamford Bridge.
But According to according to Fichajes., Chelsea and Milan are ‘quickly’ advancing their negotiations over a six-month loan deal for Casadei ahead of the January transfer window.
The report by Romano has suggested that a move back to Italy is the likeliest outcome, with a number of Serie A sides interested in signing Casadei on loan. He’ll likely be pleased to see the back of Stamford Bridge, having openly expressed his frustration at a lack of minutes under former boss Mauricio Pochettino and failed to see that change with Enzo Maresca.
COLE PALMER CLAIM MADE
Dutchman Jaap Stam has opened up and claimed that impressive CHELSEA attacker Cole Palmer may be interested in making a move to Old Trafford in the future.
Since making the decision to leave Manchester City and make the move to Stamford Bridge just a few seasons ago, Cole Palmer has developed into one of the most dangerous players in the Premier League, and one of the best.
His performances for the club over the past few seasons now means that he is the man at Stamford Bridge, mainly down to the fact that he already has over 50 goal contributions for the Blues since his arrival from City.
However – in a shock statement from Jaap Stam, the Dutchman ‘wonders’ how Palmer did not end up at Old Trafford and says the player would ‘probably’ fancy a move to the club he supported growing up.
‘Seeing the potential of Cole Palmer and him being just next door, you do wonder how Manchester United missed out on him, or maybe they did try and couldn’t get a deal over the line,’ the three-time Premier League winner told Sport Lens.
‘It would still be great to see him at Manchester United and being a fan of the club he’d probably like that to happen as well.
‘However, in his current form there might not be any clubs who can afford him. He might one day be worth £200m the way he is going.’
