The number 9 jersey worn by Chelsea’s top players almost always results in a disappointing performance, giving the impression that the jersey is cursed.
Didier Drogba and Diego Costa, the two strikers who have been successful at the club in recent years, have both avoided wearing the number nine jersey when they were playing for the club. Romelu Lukaku is the most recent player to fall victim to the number 9 jersey that is believed to be cursed. He joined Inter Milan for a club-record fee of £105 Million; however, he only managed to score 15 goals across all competitions during the previous season, and he spent most of the time warming the bench.
Concerns have been expressed regarding the availability of the club’s number nine jersey because Romelu Lukaku was loaned to Inter Milan until the end of the 2022-2023 campaign.
Since the beginning of the year 2000, several notable players have tried and failed to wear the number 9 jersey for Chelsea. These players include Herman Crespo, Alvaro Morata, Radamel Falcao, Tammy Abraham, Gonzalo Higuain, Fernando Torres, and Franco Di Santo. None of these forwards was able to amass more than 50 goals for the club in any of their appearances.
