Chelsea midfielder Van Ginkel excited going into season fully fit

Marco van Ginkel is excited going into the new season fully fit for Chelsea.

The midfielder joined the Blues from Vitesse Arnhem for £8million last summer but suffered a serious knee-ligament injury in September, which kept him out for the rest of the campaign.

Van Ginkel said: "In the summer I did some extra work, especially on my right leg for the knee and now it is much better.

"I am feeling good. I took a rest for maybe one week and then I started doing some exercises."
