Chelsea fullback Marcos Alonso has spoken about living out a "dream" playing alongside Kaka and Cristiano Ronaldo.

The Spaniard made his debut for Real Madrid as a teenager under current West Ham United manager Manuel Pellegrini.

Alonso said: "I felt the pressure when I was training with the first team. It was good pressure, a good feeling, but of course, it was pressure.

"I was training with Cristiano Ronaldo, Kaka, and I was only 16 or 17 years old. I was going 120 percent! It was a dream come true.

"The day I had to play for the first team, my debut in La Liga, that was unbelievable, but I remember I was so nervous before coming on.

"My legs were shaking when the manager, who was Manuel Pellegrini, called me. Six or seven times I had travelled with them, I warmed up, but I didn't get a chance.

"But when he called me that day – which was in Santander! - it was an amazing feeling. And I came on for Gonzalo Higuain!"
