​Marc Cucurella happy with length of Chelsea contract

Marc Cucurella has no problems with his six-year contract with Chelsea.

The Spanish left-back penned the long-term deal after moving to Chelsea from Brighton this summer.

And Cucurella, 24, thinks he can enjoy the best years of his career at Stamford Bridge.

When asked about that extended contract, Cucurella told reporters: "Well I think maybe it's a long time, but maybe that will allow me to play my best football at the club.

"It's good because I'm not pressured, in my mind, it's not like it's a six-month deal or something; there's a chance to play for the team and enjoy my football.

"Of course a contract is only paper, but I've come here to stay for many more years."
