Thomas Tuchel insists Chelsea will do everything to try and win the Club World Cup.
The Blues last competed in the Club World Cup in 2012 but were eliminated after a narrow 1-0 loss to Brazilian side Corinthians.
Tuchel's side will play their first game in the United Arab Emirates on February 9.
"I have to say once you are in it you are pretty excited," Tuchel said.
"Once you are not in it, it is a competition that has not the highest focus on and highest value. It seems like this in Europe, or only for me.
"But once you are in it and you start planning it and you see it coming on the horizon is it quite exciting.
"It is a big opportunity to win an extraordinary trophy which is far from daily business and that is why we will do anything to take the chance to make it happen."
