‘When you join Chelsea, you can only think one thing: to win trophies,' he said. 'In every competition, you have to think "I play for Chelsea and this is my ambition".

'I have to be more ready because if we lose a game, it’s done, we are out of the tournament. So, I need to prepare myself in the days I have got and be ready to help the team.'

Joao Pedro has been handed the No.20 shirt and will wear it for the first time if he features against Palmeiras on Friday.

That fixture takes place on Friday in Philadelphia (2am Saturday UK time), and the Blues will secure a place in the semi-finals if we are victorious.
