Chelsea winger Kenedy admits he is grateful to Newcastle United and former manager Rafa Benitez for last season's loan.
Kenedy now has his sights on being a regular with the Blues this season.
He told the club's website: "I learned a lot from my time there.
"I was very happy with the amount I played. It was a great experience for me so I must say thanks to the club and the manager.
"Now I have to start again here at Chelsea and work hard, step by step. My hope now is to do a great season here at Chelsea.
"That is my dream."
