Chelsea announce striker ‘has put pen-to-paper-and signed
Academy striker Shumaira Mheuka has put pen to paper on his first professional CHELSEA contract.
The club posted on the club website: ‘Mheuka became a full-time scholar in the summer and has now signed professional terms following his 17th birthday on Sunday.
He featured regularly for our Under-18s as a schoolboy during the 2023/24 season, scoring 12 goals in 20 appearances, including the Premier League national final at Stamford Bridge.
This term, he has stepped up to our Under-21s squad and netted his first goal at that level in the 6-0 win over Fulham at the start of October. He is part of our travelling squad for tonight’s UEFA Conference League clash with Panathinaikos.
Mheuka was an important player for England in the summer’s European Under-17 Championship and marked his first call-up for the Under-19s by scoring against France and the Netherlands this month.
Congratulations, Shumaira!

That board have been making alot of changes for both the womens and mens team over the past few transfer windows, but keeping the clubs talents is somethin that needs to happen.
You may not know too much about the talents of Mheuka – but he is a very good attacking option for the club in the long run and we are sure that he is a player that the board feel can break into the first team at some point.
