Can Liam Delap finally end the curse of Chelsea's number nine shirt?
The shirt had been unused for two full seasons, former manager Thomas Tuchel admitting 'nobody wants to touch it', after its last dozen occupants struggled to make a prolonged impact – including three club-record signings up front, but also a holding midfielder and a certain Dutch defender. Our new No.9. 😍 — Chelsea FC (@ChelseaFC) June 5, 2025 Here, the PA news agency looks at the 'Curse of Khalid Boulahrouz'. After arriving with a broken jaw sustained in a robbery at his Barcelona home and seeing his former Borussia Dortmund boss Tuchel sacked the day after his debut, the ex-Arsenal star failed to establish himself in west London. He was not even included in the squad for the Champions League knock-out stages, despite scoring two of his three Chelsea goals in the group stage. The Belgium striker returned from Inter Milan for £97.5m for a second spell at the club but within months, his frustrations became clear in an interview with Sky Sport Italia. Despite 15 goals in all competitions, it was no surprise when he was loaned back to Inter then Roma before joining Napoli. Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink was the last inarguably-successful Chelsea number nine but amid over £250m spent to fill the troublesome shirt in the 18 years since his departure, academy product Abraham produced perhaps the most successful spell with 30 goals in two seasons to earn a move to Roma under former Blues boss Jose Mourinho. The Argentinian's loan from Juventus yielded just five goals in 18 appearances. A then club-record buy for £60m, the Spaniard scored 15 goals in his debut season but fell out of favour, netting nine more as number 29 before joining Atletico Madrid. The Colombian scored once in 12 games in an injury-hit season. The then British-record £50m signing from Liverpool got the longest run at making the Blues' number nine shirt work for him, wearing it 172 times across three-and-a-half seasons. He scored 45 goals, including a memorable Champions League semi-final clincher against Barcelona, but several prolonged droughts saw him move on to AC Milan, on loan, and then Atletico Madrid. Fourteen scoreless substitute appearances were all Di Santo had to show for his time in west London. The former Reading midfielder managed only 24 appearances, scoring once. A largely-defensive player, he would have been a glaringly unlikely number nine, had it not been for his immediate predecessor… The versatile Netherlands defender was assigned one of the few available numbers after his £8.5m arrival from Hamburg. He lasted one season and 23 appearances in all competitions before a loan to Sevilla and a permanent exit to Stuttgart. The Argentina striker had already spent a season at Stamford Bridge wearing number 21 – scoring 12 goals – and a year on loan at AC Milan before Mourinho recalled him and gave him number nine. He added another 13 goals and a league title but soon left for Inter. Inheriting the shirt from Hasselbaink, Kezman scored just seven goals in his sole season.

Love Island stars unfollow each other as split turns bitter – after he's spotted with stunning influencer
LOVE Island stars Whitney Adabyo has put the final nail in the coffin after her split with Lochan Nowacki - she has unfollowed him online. Whitney, 27, has cut off social media contact with Lochan, also 27, after their two-year relationship came to an end last month. 5 5 Lochan has since been caught cosying up to influencer Nguyen Yeats-Brown, which has sparked rumours he has already moved on. And that appears to have been the last straw for Whitney. Whitney has now unfollowed Lochan on Instagram, while he has also reciprocated the snub. All photographic trace of their relationship has also been removed from their grids, proving they are well and truly over. Love Island alumni Whitney and Lochan announced their break-up in April. Admitting the rumours were true, Lochan said: "Hey guys, unfortunately Whitney and I's relationship has come to an end. "Thank you for all the love and support that you've show us through our journey, we're forever grateful." Whitney shared the identical message, only swapping out her name for Lochan's. The couple had met on the 2023 series of Love Island after Whitney entered the villa as a bombshell. Love Island's Whitney reveals bizarre way she reacted after Lochan dumped her - and 'real reason' he gave her Whitney coupled up with Lochan and they made it to the final. Although they were the bookies' favourite to win, they finished in second place. Prior to their split announcement, Whitney had dropped a huge clue that she was no longer in a relationship with Lochan. In a rather shady TikTok video, she appeared to hint at cheating. Whitney was seen miming along to the Mariah the Scientist song All For Me and the lyrics, "What does she have on me?". As she continued looking confused, the words, "She doesn't wear wigs' popped up onscreen. Whitney captioned the post, "Oh yikes", which further added to concern from her fans. Weeks later, Lochan was caught on camera looking close to influencer Nguyen Yeats-Brown. EVERY year Love Island opens its doors to more sexy Islanders who are hoping for a holiday romance that could turn into more. Here we take you through all of the Love Island winners so far and what their relationship statuses are now: 2025 - The second series of All Stars saw Gabby Allen and Case O'Gorman scoop the crown. STATUS: Still together. 2024 - The summer Love Island saw Mimii Ngulube and Josh Oyinsan were crowned the winners. STATUS: Broken up. 2024 - The first ever All stars spin off show was won by Molly Smith and Tom Clare. STATUS: Still together. 2023 - Jess Harding and Sammy Root took home the 50k, and won the summer 2023 Love Island. STATUS: Broken up. 2023 - The first series of 2023 saw Sanam Harrinanan and Kai Fagan crowned Love Island winners in South Africa. STATUS: Still together. 2022 - Davide Sanclimenti and Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu's time in the villa was anything but a smooth ride, but they managed to win the public's hearts - and the ITV2 reality show. STATUS: Broken up. 2021 - Liam Reardon and Millie Court were announced winners of Love Island 2021. STATUS: Still together. 2020 - The first ever winter Love Island saw Paige Turley and Finn Tapp crowned winners after falling in love on the show. STATUS: Broken up. 2019 - Series 5 saw Tommy Fury and Molly-Mae Hague runners up to winners Greg O'Shea and Amber Gill, who met in the last few days of the series. STATUS: Broken up. 2018 - It wasn't surprising fan favourites Jack Fincham and Dani Dyer won the show, as they were strong throughout. But sadly things didn't last. STATUS: Broken up. 2017 - Kem Cetinay and Amber Davies had lots of ups and downs in the villa but went on to win. STATUS: Broken up. 2016 - Nathan Massey and Cara De La Hoyde were together from the start of the series, and since they won the show they've had two kids and are married. STATUS: Still together. 2015 - Despite poor Jess Hayes being Max Morley's second choice on the show, they did win - but they didn't last as a couple. STATUS: Broken up. The pair had taken part in a celebrity tennis tournament and seemed to be getting on VERY well. In the short video, they appeared to have great chemistry and at one point Nguyen put her head on the former Islander's shoulder. Whitney, meanwhile, said she was "bamboozled" by her relationship break-up. Speaking on her podcast, Whitney recalled how Lochan said: "I've seen how much you've changed, and you're becoming like the woman that we always spoke about you becoming. "And I'm just not willing to do that." She added: "I was bamboozled. This is the person that you told me you wanted." 5 5 5
