Chelsea newcomer Denis Zakaria has commented on his move from Juventus. On September 2, the 25-year-old Swiss joined the Blues on loan.
“Everything happened very quickly. I did not know that a move to Chelsea was possible, six hours before the end of the transfer window. I heard it from my agent [about Liverpool’s interest], but in the end, it was Chelsea. I think I’ll be happier in England than in Turin.
It’s hard to say what went wrong, maybe the style of football didn’t suit me. The team sat very deep, so I didn’t have much space. I am a player who needs a lot of space to run. Perhaps I will be more comfortable in England, ”Blick quotes Zakaria.
The lease agreement spells out the possibility of buying out the rights to the player of the Swiss national team. Portal Transfermarkt estimates the value of the midfielder at 27 million euros.
