Kevin de Bruyne is confident of finding a place in Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho's plans this season.
The Belgium international has played in the majority of Chelsea's friendlies this summer and is confident he can now make an impact at Stamford Bridge.
He said: "I know that the squad is packed with quality and that competition for places is intense but I also know that I can do it.
"I'm a very confident person. During pre-season training, I was able to show what I could bring to the team - that was important.
"My versatility should play in my favour and the fact that Jose Mourinho has been speaking to me regularly has made things easier."
