Chelsea midfielder Oscar relishing Champions League debut in midweek

Brazilian midfielder Oscar admits that he is excited to make his Champions League bow for Chelsea against Juventus in midweek.

Oscar has revealed that he cannot wait to play in the Champions League for Chelsea against Juventus next week.

The Brazilian midfielder said that the lure of playing in Europe was a factor in his decision to join the Blues this summer

He told the Daily Star: "It will be a dream come true to hear that famous anthem when I am out on the pitch, rather than on television.

"I have always wanted to play in the Champions League and who wouldn't want to play for the European champions?

"I am hoping it will not take me long to adapt. There is a multi-national team here with other Brazilians and Latin players, so they will help me through their past experience."

Oscar has made three substitute appearances for Chelsea so far this season, but is yet to be named in the starting 11 by Blue boss Roberto Di Matteo.
