Joao Pedro to suffer immediate Chelsea problem as Brighton transfer agreedBrighton forward Joao Pedro’s potential £60m Chelsea move may force a squad number change. His preferred numbers are currently taken. Number 9 belongs to Liam Delap, 17 to Andrey Santos, and 10 to Cole Palmer. While 23, worn by Trevoh Chalobah, could become available. Chelsea’s squad number history shows they can be ruthless, as seen with Raheem Sterling losing the number 7.
