Chelsea defender Malang Sarr: Porto ambitions match mine

Chelsea defender Malang Sarr is delighted with his move to Porto.

The summer signing from Nice has joined Porto on a season-long loan.

Sarr said, "I am very excited. It was the opportunity I was looking for, so I am very grateful and happy to be here. I am ready to play and help the team to achieve their goals.

"It's the biggest Portuguese club, that's what I know. It's a great club, with great players and the club's history, especially, is the main one. I know the club is ambitious and I came here for that reason. I'm looking for competitiveness, playing the big games, the Champions League and helping the club and the team to win another championship, that's what I want.

"I come to give my best and to help my colleagues, to continue to evolve. I will try to be the best possible colleague and help the team to win titles."

Sarr also stated: "I am a team player, I am only interested in the team and my colleagues.

"I can say the fans are very good and I know that they help the team as much as they can and for now they will not be at the stadium, but I know that they will be with us and will help us get where we want."
