Breaking: Ajax manager John Heitinga’s prediction for Chelsea after Champions League thrashing

Chelsea delivered a commanding performance in the Champions League on Wednesday night, crushing Ajax 5-1 at Stamford Bridge in a display that sent a strong message to Europe’s elite clubs, as reported by The Chelsea Chronicle.

Despite fielding a rotated side, Enzo Maresca’s men showed their quality and depth, dominating from start to finish.

Ajax manager John Heitinga was left searching for answers as his team struggled to contain Chelsea’s relentless attacking play.

The game took a decisive turn early on when Kenneth Taylor received a red card, leaving Ajax with ten men.
From there, Chelsea took full advantage.

The young stars shone brightly, Estevão Willian etched his name into club history by becoming the youngest-ever Chelsea scorer in the Champions League.

While Jamie Gittens earned glowing reviews from Dutch media for his dynamic performance.

Following defeats to Bayern Munich and a narrow win over Jose Mourinho’s Benfica, the Blues needed a statement victory to cement their ambitions in the group stage.

They did just that, producing a fluid and confident display that demonstrated Maresca’s growing influence on the squad.

Speaking after the game, Ajax boss John Heitinga was quick to praise Chelsea’s progression, naming them as a serious contender for the European crown this season.

“If you compare them with last season, they’ve started really well in both the league and the Champions League,” Heitinga said.

“They have a big squad, young but also experienced. Enzo is still there, and a couple of other key players. Maresca is building something special. At the moment, Chelsea are definitely a team to watch.”

The victory also saw Chelsea break several club records in Europe.

Reggie Walsh became the youngest-ever player to feature for Chelsea in the Champions League.

While Marc Guiu briefly held the youngest-scorer record before Estevão surpassed him minutes later.

With this result, Chelsea not only reignited their Champions League campaign but also reaffirmed their status as one of Europe’s most exciting young teams, one that even seasoned managers like Heitinga are tipping for glory

Chelsea Have Enquired About Another Left Winger Despite Signing Alejandro Garnacho And Jamie Gittens

Chelsea are reportedly considering another move for a winger in next year’s transfer window, despite already being well-stocked in that position.

This past summer, the Blues secured deals for Alejandro Garnacho, Jamie Gittens, and Estevao Willian, while Geovany Quenda is also expected to join the club next year. With several talented wide players already in their ranks, Chelsea appear keen to continue adding more attacking depth.

According to TEAMtalk, the Premier League side have made an enquiry about AS Trencin’s Sani Suleiman. The 19-year-old Nigerian winger has caught attention after scoring twice in seven appearances this season. However, Chelsea are not alone in their pursuit, as Tottenham Hotspur are also reportedly interested.

Suleiman is viewed as a player for the future rather than an immediate first-team addition, given his age and limited experience in a top European league. Should he make the move to Stamford Bridge, he would face fierce competition from Garnacho, Gittens, Estevao, and Pedro Neto, who can operate on both wings.

While Suleiman’s talent is evident, some believe it might be too early for Chelsea to invest in another developing winger. Manager Enzo Maresca will likely want to assess how recent signings adapt before adding more youth to the squad. Unless Chelsea plan to sign Suleiman purely as a long-term investment, bringing him in now may not make much sense.

Enzo maresca : ‘You don’t need to worry about him’ – Maresca names special Chelsea star.

Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has named Estevao Willian as a ‘special player’ in the Blues’ squad, insisting that there are no worries about the youngster being carried away.

This is as the teenager has continued to shine for the Blues since arriving at Stamford Bridge over the summer.

The 18-year-old after agreed a deal to join Chelsea from Palmeiras last year and has already made an impact at the west London side.

The Brazilian scored a dramatic late winner over Liverpool to net his first Premier League goal in memorable fashion.

The Brazilian scored his first goal in the Champions League against Ajax on Wednesday, helping the Blues beat the Dutch side 5-1.

Chelsea’s Italian boss, Maresca said the young forward already has the right attitude to managed his success, picking the Brazil international as not just a special player, but with the correct mindset to succeed.

“With young players, most of the time you can be a little bit worried because if they play one or two games well and they score, they think that they are already top players,” he told reporters following their game against Ajax.

“The good thing about Estevao is that we don’t need to be worried about that. He’s very humble, he’s very polite, he wants to work hard. He also has a fantastic family; they are very close to him.

“For me, personally, he’s fantastic because he’s a special player, but you don’t have to be worried.

Thiago Silva’s Son Isago Makes Chelsea’s Champions League Squad at Just 16

According to a report by ESPN on Wednesday, October 22, 2025, Chelsea have included 16-year-old Isago Silva, son of former Blues defender Thiago Silva, in their 33-player squad for the upcoming UEFA Champions League group stage match against Ajax.

Isago, currently playing for Brazilian side Fluminense, has attracted attention not only because of his famous surname but also due to his evident talent and maturity on the pitch.

Chelsea’s coaching staff at Cobham reportedly consider him one of the most technically adept and disciplined youngsters in their academy. His inclusion in the Champions League roster is seen as recognition of his steady progress and commitment, rather than solely a reflection of his father’s legacy.

Thiago Silva, who departed Stamford Bridge at the end of the 2023/24 season after four years, left a lasting impact at the club. Known for his leadership, professionalism, and mentorship, Thiago’s influence shaped many young players during his time in London. Isago appears to have inherited both his father’s passion and dedication, demonstrating a similar approach to growth and development in football.

By registering 33 academy players, Chelsea underscore their belief in nurturing young talent. Under manager Enzo Maresca, the club continues to integrate promising academy graduates into the first team, following a tradition that produced stars like Reece James, Levi Colwill, and Conor Gallagher. These young players, including Isago, may receive valuable experience during a busy European and domestic schedule.

Although Isago is unlikely to feature against Ajax, traveling with the first-team squad offers him exposure to top-level training and the Champions League environment. This experience is expected to accelerate his growth and prepare him for future opportunities at Stamford Bridge.

For the Silva family, this moment represents a continuation of Thiago’s legacy, with Isago beginning to establish his own path in European football. Chelsea’s decision reflects the club’s ongoing commitment to fostering talent, blending potential, patience, and pedigree to secure a bright future

Chelsea to reward in-form Caicedo with blockbuster new contract

Chelsea have begun talks with Moises Caicedo over a new, more lucrative contract to ward off interest from Spanish giants Real Madrid.

Have comes as Caicedo, described as “world-class” by head coach Enzo Maresca, has become a key figure since his £115 million ($154m) arrival from Brighton in 2023.

Caicedo’s current £150,000-per-week contract already runs until 2031, with an option for an additional year, but the Blues are eager to secure his future with improved terms through a higher salary or new bonus structure, rather than an extension to the duration, according to GiveMeSport.

The report also states that Caicedo is keen to remain at Stamford Bridge, despite reported interest from Real Madrid

Chelsea fans finally handed good news they`ve been waiting for

Chelsea supporters may finally have reason to smile after a long period of uncertainty off the pitch. Since the Clearlake-Boehly ownership took charge, the club has faced numerous off-field challenges that other top sides seem to handle with ease. One of the biggest problems has been securing consistent sponsorship deals, something that has caused both financial and reputational setbacks for the London club.

When the 2023/24 season began, Chelsea had no front-of-shirt sponsor until a short-term agreement with Infinite Athlete was reached midway through the campaign. The following season brought more of the same, with the team playing most of 2024/25 without a sponsor before Damac briefly filled the spot late in the year. Now, approaching November once again, the Blues find themselves without a main shirt sponsor for the third consecutive time — an unusual situation for a club of Chelsea’s stature.

This lack of stability has reportedly cost the club more than £50 million in lost revenue, a worrying figure for an organization trying to rebuild both its finances and on-field success. However, there appears to be some long-awaited good news. According to The Athletic, Chelsea’s search for a new front-of-shirt sponsor is finally nearing completion. Talks are said to be at an advanced stage, and a final decision is expected soon.

Additionally, the club has secured a sleeve sponsorship deal with FPT for the remainder of the season. Though not a long-term partnership, it represents progress in addressing a major commercial issue. With a new main sponsor likely on the way, Chelsea are moving closer to restoring stability off the field and keeping pace with Europe’s elite clubs.

Breaking : Tosin Adarabioyo Claims Josh Acheampong Does One Thing Better Than Any Chelsea Player

Chelsea centre-back Tosin Adarabioyo has heaped praise on young teammate Josh Acheampong, highlighting the teenager’s exceptional dribbling from the back, according to The Chelsea Chronicles. Acheampong, 19, made a strong impression in Chelsea’s 3-0 Premier League win over Nottingham Forest, where he also scored his first senior goal.

Speaking to HaytersTV, Adarabioyo emphasized Acheampong’s unique qualities on the ball. “Every single day I’m onto him to make sure he’s doing the right things… Josh’s qualities with the ball, especially when he’s driving with the ball, is unmatched, for me. He’s the best at it,” he said. Adarabioyo added that with continued work and confidence, Acheampong has the potential to become a top player for Chelsea.

The young defender has already started five matches in the 2025-26 season and has shown versatility by providing cover at full-back. Troy Deeney also praised Acheampong’s composure, predicting he could be the future of Chelsea’s defense. Having come through Chelsea’s academy since the age of eight, Acheampong is now beginning to make his mark on the senior team.

Manager Enzo Maresca acknowledged Acheampong’s talent while stressing the need for gradual development. “We are very happy with Josh… like every player, there is room to improve, especially when you are 18, 19. There are many things that you can look at,” Maresca said, noting the strong competition for defensive spots at Chelsea.

With back-to-back starts in the Premier League and upcoming Champions League fixtures, Acheampong has a chance to build on his early momentum. His dribbling ability, maturity on the ball, and growing confidence suggest he could soon become a key figure in Maresca’s defensive plans
