Kenedy is determined to grab his preseason chance under Chelsea manager Frank Lampard.
Kenedy has had the third most amount of minutes during pre-season under Lampard, who has admitted the left winger/left back has made 'a strong case to stay here'.
The player himself hopes that is the case and said: I am really pleased for the opportunity the manager is giving me and the amount I have been playing in pre-season.
When I was at Chelsea before I played a lot as a left-back, but now I have been playing further forward. My past experiences as a left-back have helped me be a better player now.
I learned a lot from my time (at Newcastle). 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."
