[Saba Sports News] Recently, Premier League club Chelsea released a new message on their official website. They posted a photo of the team celebrating their victory in the Club World Cup, but to everyone’s surprise, they edited out U.S. President Donald Trump, who had forcefully joined the group photo. The image only shows the players’ bright smiles and the trophy they held high. This move quickly sparked online discussions, with some joking: “Chelsea is expressing their dissatisfaction through actions — there’s no place for him in this photo.”The incident occurred when, according to the tradition of international competitions, after Trump and Gianni Infantino handed over the trophy to Chelsea’s captain, Infantino politely stepped back to give space to the players. However, Trump did not retreat, and the players soon realized he wanted to take a photo with the champions. They had no choice but to reluctantly comply. While Chelsea proved their strength in the Club World Cup final, the post-match photo incident made Trump the unexpected “star” of the event. It remains to be seen whether Trump will learn from this experience next time and avoid becoming an awkward focal point at similar events.
