Chelsea defender Chalobah welcomes Koulibaly competition; 'excited' for Sterling addition

Chelsea defender Trevoh Chalobah has welcomed new signings Raheem Sterling and Kalidou Koulibaly.

Chalobah is happy to fight for his place with Koulibaly, while Sterling's attacking quality is a welcome addition.

He told the club's website: "This is a big club and Chelsea is always going to try to strengthen the team in every position.

"I'm just focused on what I need to do to get into the team and do what I did last season, to step it up 10 times more and show the manager that I'm ready.

"It brings a lot to the team, how much of a big player he is.

"He's won a lot and scored a lot of goals so to get that type of player joining our squad to then help us win games and trophies is going to be massive for us. We're all excited."
