Chelsea squad numbers confirmed for 2023/24 season

Chelsea squad numbers confirmed for 2023/24 season, The squad numbers assigned to our summer signings for the 2023/24 campaign have been confirmed – and several existing players have taken new shirt numbers ahead of the season.

Christopher Nkunku was the first new arrival at Stamford Bridge this summer and the France international has taken the number 18 shirt. Fellow forward Nicolas Jackson, who joined from Villarreal, will wear the number 15.

Defender Axel Disasi completed a switch from Monaco last week and has taken the number 2 shirt. Goalkeeper Robert Sanchez, signed from Brighton, will be our number 31.

Disasi will wear No.2 this season

Malo Gusto, who joined up with the squad this summer after a January move from Lyon, has taken the number 27. Young midfielders Andrey Santos and Lesley Ugochukwu will wear number 20 and number 16 respectively.

An array of squad numbers were vacated this summer after departures from Stamford Bridge, and that has resulted in several players switching numbers ahead of the new season.

World Cup winner Enzo Fernandez will now wear the number 8 shirt and Mykhailo Mudryk has taken on the number 10.

Mudryk and Enzo have both changed numbers to 10 and 8 respectively

Raheem Sterling is our latest number 7; the England international wore 17 last season following his move from Manchester City.

Noni Madueke has opted for the number 11 shirt ahead of the new campaign. Marc Cucurella will wear 3; Benoit Badiashile 5; Carney Chukwuemeka 17; and Armando Broja has switched to 19.

Levi Colwill, who last week signed a new six-year contract, has taken on the number 26 shirt made famous at Chelsea by fellow Academy graduate John Terry.

Colwill will take the No.26 shirt!

Ian Maatsen has been incorporated into the first-team squad this summer and impressed throughout pre-season. The versatile Dutchman will wear the number 29.
