London, England – Chelsea legend Claude Makelele don talk say e dey proud say im legacy still dey alive for Stamford Bridge, as Moises Caicedo dey show say e fit carry that midfield role go higher level. Makelele wey don retire, sabi as e take anchor Chelsea midfield when dem turn champions back-to-back in 2004 and 2005.
When e come from Real Madrid, wey sabi their ‘galacticos’ era, people no fit forget wetin Makelele do for the club. Na so him come dey watch as Chelsea take flourish, especially with boys like Caicedo and Romeo Lavia wey dey shine. ‘Chelsea don get good players, dem dey young and talented,’ Makelele talk, as him dey look the way dem dey progress.
Makelele no shy to show im love for Caicedo, as dem get some kind relationship wey fit ginger the next generation. ‘This boy dey humble, him dey play with smile and dey work hard for him paddy dem,’ e add. Na true talk! If dem fit shine like Makelele, we go dey enjoy plenty goals and victories.
As dem dey compare Caicedo and Makelele, the 2005 Premier League winner dey glad say dem no dey call am ‘Makelele role’ for nothing. But, e also believe say time don reach for Caicedo to create him own legacy. ‘I prefer say dem do their own thing, write their story,’ Makelele talk.
Im sabi say the road no easy but e dey feel say Caicedo dey on the right path. ‘Na him own time to shine, why people no go fit dey talk about the “Caicedo role” for future?’ Na wetin Makelele dey reason.
Caicedo don already become key player for Chelsea, wey help dem win FIFA Club World Cup and Europa Conference League. E fit still be boy now, but him don show say e go fit turn to big name for the club like Makelele do before.
Makes sense as Makelele dey encourage young players to block out wetin people dey talk and focus on how dem fit grow and shine. E mean say Chelsea dey build proper culture to help the young ones dey thrive amidst the pressure of expectation.
No be chance we go dey see as Chelsea dey strive for greatness. With Makelele’s words of wisdom and Caicedo’s talent, na who go stop dem from writing glorious chapters for the club’s future? We dey wan see more glories from di blues!
