An 8-year-old boy walked through those doors. A man walks out. Dream lived. Purpose fulfilled. To every academy player at Chelsea: keep believing. Your time will come. Never give up. 💙
After 18 years, it’s time to say goodbye to Chelsea. I arrived as a nine-year-old with a dream, and I leave as a man who’s lived that dream in ways I never imagined. This journey tested me, lifted me, and strengthened me. To every teammate, coach, staff member, and supporter, thank you for shaping me. I gave everything I had, and I’m proud of the person this club helped me become. To the young players: the path won’t always be smooth. But stay ready, stay positive, and keep your faith. God’s timing is always right. Thank you all, truly, with love and gratitude.
…….To the fans: your passion and support inspired me to give my best every day. Your belief in me, especially during tough times, made the good moments even better. I hope you saw a player who always gave everything for your colours, with pride and heart.
To my family: you have always been by my side and cheered me on through hard times, your love and support mean everything to me. I hope you feel proud. I could not have achieved any of this without you on this journey.
Football has given me so much: it has taught me values like teamwork, sacrifice, humility, and respect.
It has granted me the opportunity to explore new countries, new cultures, and new languages. My heart is full of gratitude and memories I will carry with me into whatever comes next.
With love,
César

Easter reminds us that even after the longest and darkest nights, new light breaks through.
It’s a season of renewal, faith and hope.
To Christian faithfuls worldwide, may the resurrection of Jesus the Saviour give us new life and inspire fresh starts for all of us.

When y’all go about setting ridiculous standards, you don’t know
The simps we have today is because of you people
There’s no single day you won’t see one idiot broke shaming a man and y’all would be clapping for her and clocking rubbish
Y’all say, a man making a honest living from his 9-5 is not fit to bag y’all retarded broke souls
Cars you won’t have but you would demand he has one
Money you don’t have but you would require him to be filthy rich
Connections, you don’t have
Rich parents, you don’t have
Then the little less than 11% brain that God has given to you, you still chose not to have common sense again
Enough is enough!
If men can be broke shamed and y’all keep quite and act as though it’s normal
Then shut up and enjoy this trend in peace
Sheybi it’s easy to make money
Oya naw
Go get your bag up
Men are now materialistic and high maintenance
Deal with it!
I guess this is the best time to tell the story.
I was in my final year, and I had just completed my project, on this day I took it to my supervisor for her to approve so I can go print hard copy and submit the following week or next so I can return to Lagos, I was also prepping for the final too with my boys so we get to the viewing center early cause it was going to be jam packed. That was how my supervisor said my chapter 2-5 was trash after checking. “Everywhere first blurrrr” I wan crazy. Project topic that you gave me that I have been on for almost 6months, spent a lot with production, sensory evaluation done, gotten data, interpreted and analyzed my results, make go start all over again, at that point I was just sad instantly with the school I was tired of sef. I just said okay and I packed my stuff and left her office. Meet up with my boys and I told them “what happened and if she made me sad at least Chelsea won’t” na so we enter viewing center, boom Chelsea Won 1-0. My joy came back. I went back home so happy and fulfilled, I knew I still had a problem to solve but I was in content. Fast forward to Monday, I went back to my supervisor to ask her what I can do so I don’t end up spending up to what I spent initially for the first work, on getting to her office, she was telling her colleagues that her husband has been gifting her since on Saturday night up until this morning and they are going for a dinner date this evening all because Chelsea won the champions league for the second time.
Her: Then she said why are you here to me?
Me: I said I brought my project
Her: let me see, hope you added image of your production and you referenced properly
Me: yes I did ma
she collected my project work, checked it all and said you are good to go. Go and do your hard cover and burn your soft copy into a disk when coming to submit, then I asked her, “like do you mean I am cleared she said yes”
Tears rolled out of my eyes and I said Chelsea you do this one.
And to my supervisor husband may God continue to bless you, and for choosing this club.
