Liam Delap: Chelsea's Club World Cup glory could open the floodgates for more trophies

Liam Delap believes Chelsea can follow their stunning FIFA Club World Cup win by lifting more trophies next season.

Enzo Maresca’s men gloriouly toppled UEFA Champions League winners Paris St-Germain 3-0 at MeltLife Stadium on Sunday night to become the best club side on the planet.

It was another huge success for the Blues under Maresca, who won the Conference League and qualified for the Champions League in his first season in charge.

Now Delap, a £30million summer signing from Ipswich Town, reckons a Chelsea side flooded with young talent can become a major force in the game.

“It’s such a special feeling and we dream of moments like this growing up,” the striker told Chelsea TV.

“To put in a performance like that is special and we deserved it.

“It’s a great start and we’ve just got to push this into next season and bring home more trophies. It’s a special club.”

Delap scored his first goal for Chelsea in the 3-0 win over Es Tunis in the group stages and came off the bench in the final.

“We had the belief and mentality within the squad,” added the 22-year-old.

“Coming in, I’ve only been here for a short space of time but I can see that everyone is so dialled in to what the manager wants.

“Everyone’s hungry to win and we’ve proved that. Hopefully we can keep proving that in the future.”
