Chelsea striker Nkunku: I've dreamed about Premier League

Chelsea striker Christopher Nkunku is excited ahead of a first Premier League season.

The summer arrival from RB Leipzig has impressed in preseason.

"I want to show what I can do," he told the club's website. "This is just the beginning. I still need to adapt.

"To come here and score directly in the first game, I was very happy. The first thing in my mind is to adapt with the team and my teammates – with the club also – and improve every day.

"I was dreaming of playing in the Premier League. This is the league where I wanted to play in my career and have the chance to be. It is the biggest league in the world and every great player wanted to play in this league."
