Bertrand Traore completed his transfer from Chelsea to Olympique Lyon on Monday and has criticised the Premier League outfit for denying him a real chance in the first team.

“I could stay and play games, knowing full well that a starting place was never going to come. I was trained at the club, I did everything, two seasons ago I even pushed the holders a bit, but we all saw what happened,” he explained.

The striker starred for a hugely impressive young Ajax side last season that went all the way to final of the Europa League where they were beaten 2-0 by Manchester United.

Given his form for the Dutch side, Lyon will be pleased to sign the 21-year-old for just €10 million.

Watch Traore speak about his former club and his ambitions for the future in the videos below.
