Liam Delap is determined to make his mark at Chelsea after lifting the Club World Cup in his first few weeks at the club. The young striker, who played a crucial role throughout the tournament, is already setting his sights on adding more silverware in the coming season.
Delap contributed with a goal against ES Tunis and an assist on his debut versus Los Angeles FC, helping the Blues reach the knockout stages. Though he was denied a goal in the final by Paris Saint-Germain’s Gianluigi Donnarumma, the victory and the winner’s medal have fuelled his hunger.
“It’s a great start for me,” Delap said. “Now we have to push on into next season and bring more trophies home to this special club.”
The 21-year-old was full of praise for his teammates, especially Cole Palmer, who netted twice in the final. Delap emphasized the collective strength of the squad and the importance of maintaining a winning mentality.
“We have got to keep that winning mentality and win more trophies. It’s a really special group and I think we can go on to do special things,” he added.
With Chelsea competing on multiple fronts in the 2025/26 campaign, Delap is focused on cementing his place in the squad and contributing to what he hopes will be a season filled with further triumphs.
