Chelsea Football Club has officially introduced Brazilian forward João Pedro in a playful video clip capturing him enjoying a sunny day at the beach.
The clip, released across the club’s media channels, features scenes of Pedro casually tossing a football on the sand before transitioning to his first moments in Chelsea training gear—an engaging and personal way to announce their latest addition.
The 23‑year‑old star has joined from Brighton & Hove Albion in a high‑profile move reportedly worth up to £60 million, including potential add‑ons . Pedro has committed to a long‑term contract, with terms running until at least 2032 . Since arriving at Brighton in 2023, he netted 30 goals and provided 10 assists in 70 appearances—figures that caught the eye of Chelsea’s recruitment team .
Pedro becomes the fourth player to make the switch from Brighton to Chelsea under owner Todd Boehly, following Moisés Caicedo, Marc Cucurella, and Robert Sánchez . Brighton’s manager, Fabian Hürzeler, commented that the move benefits all parties, offering Pedro Champions League football and enhancing his prospects ahead of the next World Cup
The Brazilian international, who has earned three senior caps for Brazil, could make his debut during Chelsea’s Club World Cup quarter‑final against Palmeiras in the United States later this week .
