Chelsea striker Salomon Kalou believes that the Blues can win the Champions League this season.
The 26-year-old scored the only goal as Chelsea defeated Benfica 1-0 in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final on Tuesday, and the Ivorian is confident that the club can go all the way.
"Given the team that we have, we know we can win against any club. Winning the Champions League is possible, everything's possible," Kalou told Sky Sports News.
Kalou's contract with the club expires in the summer.
