Hernán Perez has revealed his dream of playing in the Premier League with Chelsea.
The Espanyol winger is determined to realise his ambition by competing in England's top flight where he would prefer to play over desirable Spanish duo Real Madrid and Barcelona.
"Since I started playing football, my target was always to play in the Premier League and I will not stop until I get it," the 27-year-old told Paraguayan publication La Nacion.
"I dream of playing for Chelsea, I always liked them, ahead of Real Madrid and Barcelona.
"If I get to choose, I will not hesitate to go to England."
Following his comments, Perez quickly took to Twitter to assure Espanyol fans that he remains fully committed to the Catalan club.
