Jimmy-Jay Morgan happy with Chelsea choice: A great club with a lot of history

Jimmy-Jay Morgan says he's happy to be on the pitch and scoring for Chelsea U21s.

The striker made a surprise move to Chelsea last season from Southampton, though joined the Blues carrying an injury.

This term, Morgan has scored three times in six Under-21 appearances in all competitions.

He told chelseafc.com: "It was tough at first to settle because of my injury but I did not let that affect me too much. The boys also made me feel so welcome, I could not complain at all."

He continued, "When I scored my first Chelsea goal, it was a massive relief as that gave me the confidence to continue being a goal contributor in the team."

Morgan added: "I have come to a great club with a lot of history and a lot of massive players. I want to build a mentality like some of the greats and hopefully that helps me to achieve my goals at the football club."
