Joe Cole, former Chelsea winger, has warned the club’s latest recruit Alejandro Garnacho that he must ‘knuckle down’ if he is to succeed at Stamford Bridge.
Recall that the Blues officially announced the Argentina winger as their new player on Saturday after he joined from Manchester United.
Speaking to TNT Sport, Cole also cautioned Garnacho that he will face a lot of competition in his position in Enzo Maresca’s squad.
“He’s going to be competing with Gittens you would imagine for that left wing role and coming in on his right foot,” Cole said.
“I think it is a good price for Chelsea. If he wants to knuckle down and become a top player that he can become, he needs to come to a good environment which I think Chelsea is and grow from there.
“But there are lots of competition for those wide positions.”
Garnacho will re-unite with his Argentina national teammate Enzo Fernandez at Stamford Bridge.
