Okore wants Chelsea move

Nordsjaelland defender Jores Okore has admitted that he "would love" to play for Chelsea.

The 20-year-old was part of the Danish side that were beaten 4-0 by the Blues in the Champions League on Tuesday, but he further enhanced his reputation with an assured display.

"I was not fazed by their stature. When the game is on, I only see humans like you and me. Of course they are a great team, which they showed, but I was just focusing on my assignments and, to be fair, I think I did pretty well," he told Sky Sports News.

"Hopefully I proved I have what it takes to play in a competition like the Premier League, which is one of the best leagues in the world. So hopefully I can play in England someday.

"Chelsea are my favourite team and I would love to play for them in the future. Every player dreams of playing for Chelsea and I am no exception."

Okore is regarded as one of the best young defenders in European football.
