Van Ginkel: Why Chelsea teammates call me 'Justin'

Chelsea midfielder Marco van Ginkel has revealed he already has two nicknames around Cobham.

Van Ginkel moved to Chelsea earlier this summer from Vitesse Arnhem.

"I'm the 'kid' or 'Justin'," revealed Van Ginkel.

"They think I rather look like Justin Bieber."

Mourinho calls him 'the kid'.

"Yes, I have read that too. I do not know if he literally said that, but Mourinho is doing a lot for me. Not only with me but with the whole team."
