Chelsea defender Zouma happy with multiple roles

Chelsea defender Kurt Zouma has enjoyed testing himself in different roles this preseason.

Zouma has performed well in midfield as well as in central defence for Chelsea and he has a past history of playing right-back. For the final half-hour against Barcelona he was left-back as Cesar Azpilicueta was given some well-earned rest.

He told chelseafc.com: "It is a new position for me, I played there only one time when I was at Vaulx-En-Velin, but I have to help the team and the boss put me at left-back and it was not a problem.

"I just wanted to play and enjoy the game and the most important thing was that we win and I could help the team."
