Ferreira happy to stay at Chelsea

Chelsea defender Paulo Ferreira believes he has a future with the Blues and is ready to stay and fight for a place in the team.

Ferreira failed to make an impact for the Blues last season but has been told he is part of new coach Carlo Ancelotti’s plans.

He said: “It was important to me that the manager rated me.

“Ancelotti has told me that he has confidence in me and I will be part of his plans.

“I want to forget last season because I am focusing on being fit for the start of this season and I believe I will be at my best by September.

“No-one can doubt my commitment, I will always give 100 per cent but if you’re not 100 per cent then you can’t help the team and that was my problem last season.”
