Chelsea signed Joao Pedro from Brighton and Hove Albion earlier this summer, and the Brazilian’s life at his new club began.
The 23-year-old managed to leave his mark on his new club at the FIFA Club World Cup today, on his old club Fluminense against his old club Fluminense.
Joao Pedro’s amazing score
The Brazilian handed the lead to his lead in the 18th minute, scoring a goal from outside the box. It’s interesting whether he can base his impressive start to Chelsea’s life on his way and add his goal stats to the rest of the game.
18’João Pedro, are you serious? ⚽💥
The first start, the first goal, it was against his old club! Chelsea 1-0

Chelsea entered the semifinals of the game and they will go all the way. Players like Pedro may be very useful to them.
Chelsea fans will be happy
The Blues paid a premium to secure their signature, and fans will be happy with what they see from the new signing. He had an impressive season in the Premier League last year in Brighton and it would be fun to see if he could replicate this at his new club.
The Brazilian is a talented player who can operate in multiple offensive roles, and Joao Pedro will establish himself as a key player for Chelsea as the season progresses.
Chelsea will need more purpose and creativity in the last third after last season and they will be happy with the way they signed.
