Join Chelsea legends like Gary Cahill and Jody Morris.
With just one week remaining until the eagerly anticipated Legends of Europe match at Stamford Bridge, Chelsea fans have even more reason to be excited as two additional former stars have been announced to join the squad.
In a special unveiling at Stamford Bridge during half-time of today’s game against Nottingham Forest, Gary Cahill was introduced as one of the latest additions to the star-studded lineup. Cahill’s inclusion in the Legends of Europe game carries significant historical weight. He famously raced against time to regain fitness for the 2012 Champions League final against Bayern Munich and ultimately lifted the trophy just a few months after joining Chelsea. His success continued over the years with the Blues, adding numerous other trophies to his collection.
The Legends of Europe match holds a special place in Chelsea’s history as it commemorates the 2012 Champions League triumph. Many other heroes from that unforgettable campaign have already committed to play once more, under the guidance of former Chelsea manager Roberto Di Matteo. Additionally, this match serves as a tribute to the late Gianluca Vialli, further enhancing its emotional significance.
Joining Gary Cahill on the pitch for this memorable reunion is Jody Morris. Morris, a former Chelsea midfielder, shares a unique connection with Gianluca Vialli. When Vialli arrived in London in 1996, he discovered a talented young midfielder with “Morris” on the back of his shirt. Their journey together saw Vialli transition from player to manager, with Morris benefiting from the Italian’s guidance during successful cup campaigns.
These two new additions join a star-studded lineup that spans generations of Chelsea greats. Fans can look forward to seeing iconic figures such as John Terry, Gianfranco Zola, Michael Essien, Claude Makelele, Carlo Cudicini, Tore Andre Flo, Frank Leboeuf, Salomon Kalou, Florent Malouda, Eidur Gudjohnsen, William Gallas, Tiago, Ramires, John Mikel Obi, Hilaro, Frank Sinclair, Pierluigi Casiraghi, Jon Harley, Sam Dalla Bona, and Danny Granville back in Chelsea blue.
As the excitement continues to build for the Legends of Europe match, scheduled for Saturday, September 9th, with a kick-off time of 7:15 pm, fans are encouraged to secure their tickets quickly. While many have already been sold, general admission seats and Club Chelsea packages are still available for purchase. This extraordinary reunion of Chelsea legends promises to be a night to remember at Stamford Bridge.
