Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez has paid tribute to former club Benfica.
Fernandez left Benfica for Chelsea in a 120m deal last month.
He said, "It changed my life. I will always be grateful to Benfica. It opened the door to European football for me. I will always be grateful to everyone at the club. It was a very beautiful experience. I learned a lot.
"I dreamed of playing in the Premier League for a long time. Chelsea gave me the opportunity to come here. They trusted me a lot and I am very grateful to everyone at the club, my teammates and the technical staff. that I felt very cherished.
The season has been frantic. He was signed by Benfica, won the World Cup and is now in the Premier League.
"The World Championship is like reaching the sky. For me, it's eternal glory. It's something historic that hasn't been won for a long time," he said. "It all went by so fast that I'm still shocked. I enjoy football. It was something I've always dreamed of."
