In an interview with The Telegraph, he discussed his new role and why it aligns perfectly with his playing style.
"Playing centrally has given me more opportunities to influence the game,:" he said. I enjoy being involved in the build-up and making key passes as well as scoring.
"It suits my style, and I think I can be even more effective there."
The 22-year-old went on to speak about his future at the club and if he sees himself being a loyal asset to Chelsea until the end of his career.
“Absolutely. Chelsea feels like home to me, and I’m excited about what we can achieve together.
“I’m fully committed to the club and its future.”
