Chelsea Thailand fans get hands on Europa League trophy

Chelsea's official Thailand Supporters' Club were able to get their hands on the Europa League trophy on the weekend.

Blues chief Ron Gourlay spent time chatting with the official Thai Supporters Club on Saturday, and spent an hour discussing a range of topics around the club.

Danilo Torresani, who heads up the Thailand club, told chelseafc.com: "It was brilliant. The people were very excited and nobody knew the trophy would be here.

"We are very proud to be here and speak with Mr Gourlay about the club.

"We are growing very fast and very happy to be the top Asian club in terms of membership. We have a lot of members, and thanks to the relationship with the club we have made a bridge between Asia and Europe - that is how it feels."
