Chelsea captain Cesar Azpilicueta admits that helping so many new players settle into the club at once is not easy.

The Blues have secured big money signings in the summer and winter transfer windows.

The likes of Joao Felix, Mykhailo Mudryk, Enzo Fernandez, and Benoît Badiashile joined summer arrivals Raheem Sterling, Wesley Fofana, and Kalidou Koulibaly, among others.

Asked about welcoming so many new players during a press conference, Azpi stated: “It's been a bit of a busier January transfer than before but in my role, I try to help them adapt as quickly as possible to the team. In football, sometimes you don't have a lot of time to start your journey in a new club, country, a different language.

“So from my side, I've been trying to help integrate them as quickly as possible in the team so that they can express themselves and show their quality, like a few of the boys have done already. I think we have exciting times ahead."
