Chelsea manager, Xabi Alonso, has declared his ambition to restore the club to the top of English and European football.
Alonso insisted that the Blues must aim to win the Premier League and Champions League again.
However, the Spaniard has cautioned that the rebuilding process will take time, admitting that immediate success cannot be guaranteed.
“This club has won the Champions League, Premier League not so long ago and we want to be back there,” Alonso told Sky Sports.
“But we are not stupid to think that this has to come right now.”
The former Real Madrid and Bayer Leverkusen coach is tasked with bringing consistency and renewed belief to a Chelsea side seeking to re-establish itself among the leading clubs in Europe.
Alonso’s statement will resonate with Chelsea supporters eager to see the club challenge for the biggest honours again.
While the manager has made his long-term ambitions clear, his immediate priority will be building a team capable of competing consistently in the Premier League and returning Chelsea to the Champions League’s elite.
