Is Joao Pedro the Secret Weapon Chelsea Needs to Shake Up the Premier League Title Race?
Chelsea’s Club World Cup campaign has already proven a financial success, with Joao Pedro repaying his transfer fee through dazzling performances. In New Jersey, Pedro delivered two outstanding goals in his full debut to help defeat Fluminense and secure Chelsea a place in the final. The club’s total earnings from the tournament now stand around £82 million, and Pedro’s emergence offers a significant bonus — both sporting and financial.
Pedro’s display against Fluminense, the tournament’s surprise package, was exceptional. Removed after 60 minutes, he had already scored twice, showcasing composure, clinical finishing, and tactical intelligence. His second goal was particularly memorable, a fluid counter-attack move involving Cole Palmer’s resilience under pressure, an inch-perfect pass by Enzo Fernández, and a thunderous finish from Pedro that struck the underside of the bar before crossing the line — a goal reminiscent of great World Cup strikes.
