He continued: "They don’t need to question that [commitment]. At the end of the day, I always said I wanted to come here to be successful, that’s why I signed a five-year deal. I think Chelsea as a club is equal to success.

"I think all the players who come here are winning and I have a special passion for this club and I want to achieve that with this football club and want to win here for many years.

"That’s why I signed a five-year deal and I want to make sure I show my commitment in training every day and in games for this football club."
