"I'm very glad for him because I saw from the first training what kind of quality Kai has," said the 27-year-old to chelseafc.com. "It was a tough start for him, which is normal because he's young coming to a new country.

"He just changed in the last half a year and has adapted now very well to the Premier League. He knows how to play in such a physical league, he showed great character and that's what true champions do.

"They perform every week and he's doing that now. He's playing class football because he's a class player."
