Danny Welbeck scored 50 minutes into his Chelsea debut in a Carabao Cup tie against Luton Town, helping the club advance to the next round.

The 35-year-old joined for a reported $8 million, a modest fee compared to Chelsea's bigger summer outlays on Morgan Rogers, Maxence Lacroix and Marco Palestra under new manager Xabi Alonso.

Welbeck, who has scored 90 Premier League goals across his career, described his own value to the squad in terms of raising the team's average age and offering dressing-room experience.

The full dispatch is available from the source below.

✒ FROM THE EDITORIAL DESK
A veteran forward scoring on debut for cup fare against a lower-division side is a nice moment, not a market-moving event, and it certainly is not a tariff. Whatever routing error sent this to the trade desk, the story itself is exactly as advertised: pleasant, minor, and entirely about a football match.
