Former Chelsea stars, Glenn Hoddle has praised midfielder, Denis Zakaria after the player’s impressive outing on his first appearance for the west London club.
Zakaria, who joined Chelsea on loan from Juventus in the summer, scored a goal as Graham Potter’s side defeated Dinamo Zagreb 2-1 in the Champions League on Wednesday night at Stamford Bridge.
Giving their verdicts on Zakaria’s display, Hoddle said the Swiss star is the perfect partner for Jorginho in Chelsea’s midfield.
Speaking on BT Sport after the match, Hoddle said, “I liked his character and his demeanour on the pitch, it was his first game for Chelsea and he looked as if he felt at home.”
