Mateo Kovacic refuses to comment on his Chelsea future despite having a gala time at the West London club since his arrival.
The Croatian midfielder seemed to be an excess baggage in the already congested Real Madrid midfield and decided to try his luck in the Premier League as he was roped in by Maurizio Sarri this summer.
Since then the midfielder has played a key role in Chelsea’s perfect start to the season as he made six starts in the top flight in the new setup. Following his three unsuccessful stints with the Spanish giants where he failed to establish himself as a regular member of the starting lineup the 24 year old felt the need for a new adventure.
Kovacic said, “It’s too early for these questions, I am here and very happy.
“[Playing regularly] is good, I’m a little bit tired. I was not used to playing every three or four games and here it is very tough football.
“You can’t relax against anybody so it’s a little bit difficult but I really enjoy it. We have a great team, great fans and the city is nice. I like it a lot here.
“I go around and I enjoy the city — it’s huge and I haven’t seen enough of it yet. I’m looking forward to getting to know it more. I’m enjoying it. What’s the most interesting thing I’ve seen so far? The stadium.
“I don’t do anything special. I spend a lot of time in Cobham because I need to prepare myself for training and every game but after that I go home and enjoy time with my wife.
“Nothing special, we go for dinner, we live in the city so we are walking a lot. My family enjoys the city and that’s the most important thing for me in the end.”
