'Can't wait to see you at Stamford Bridge': Zakaria's message to Chelsea fans after loan deal
Denis Zakaria was Chelsea's last signing of the summer as he completed a season-long loan deal.
On switching to Chelsea, Zakaria said: "I want to say hi to all the Chelsea fans. I’m very happy and proud to be a Blue and I cannot wait to see you soon at Stamford Bridge."
Chelsea chairman Todd Boehly said: "Denis is a talented midfielder with lots of quality and skill. He will add depth and range to our squad this season, and we are looking forward to watching him play in Chelsea blue." Behdad Eghbali and José E. Feliciano, co-controlling owners, added: "Denis brings top-level and international experience, and his mix of tenacity and great distribution will be assets to our team. We’re happy to have him with us and welcome him to London."
Zakaria arrives from Juventus. Standing at 6'3", he is a physical midfielder with excellent workrate and good passing range, who can play as both central and defensive midfielder.
We hope to see him make a positive impact with Chelsea this season.
