Hi Baba, welcome to the club. How does it feel to be a Chelsea player?

Thank you very much. I’m very happy to be here and I’m really looking forward to meeting my team-mates and getting started.

What are your first impressions of Cobham?

It’s a fantastic training ground, the facilities are amazing and the pitches are world class. It’s very good here.

Could you explain a little about your playing style?

I’m a left-back and, as a defender, it’s important for me to be strong in the tackle, which I always try to be. I also like to get forward as much as possible and help the team in attack.

Thanks to chelseafc.com
