January recruit Kevin de Bruyne said he was excited to join Chelsea and looking forward to helping the European champions integrate their new style.
De Bruyne signed for the Stamford Bridge club in the January transfer window from Genk, and was immediately loaned back to the Belgian side for the rest of the campaign.
De Bruyne has an English mother, and therefore has settled in really well already and finds no problem conversing in English. The Belgian midfielder revealed he was already helping compatriot and fellow new signing Eden Hazard learn the language.
"I know a couple of people here already so it's quite good for integration, I don't see there being any problems.
"I know Eden very well, and for a long time. I played with him for the national team and we are the same age so we played together when we were 18, 19.
"Marko Marin is also here and we are all young, so it makes it easier to get to know each other. We also play the same style which is good for us, and we will find our way together."
De Bruyne said he is looking forward to the pre-season tour to the U.S., and playing in front of large crowds. "Since I have been here for pre-season everything is fine, the club has taken very good care of me and has organised everything perfectly to make it easy, the 21-year-old told the club's official website.
"I have spoken to Roberto Di Matteo a couple of times and now we go to America on Saturday which is very exciting.
"I've been on tours but never anything so big to America, with Genk normally it was to Turkey or somewhere like that -- you don't play in front of so many people -- but it will be fine. I never played in front of 60,000 people yet but it doesn't worry me."
"I have only been to LA, and I liked it a lot.
"I am a fan of Entourage which is a very good show but now I am hoping to see some more of the American cities we are visiting. I like to travel a lot so I am looking forward to it."
Meanwhile, Chelsea youngsters Tomas Kalas and Patrick Van Aanholt have returned to Vitesse Arnhem on season-long loans, the London club confirmed.
Both players were temporarily with the Eredivisie side last season, before confirming their moves for the upcoming campaign.
Czech under-21 international Kalas, 19, made 29 league appearances over the course of the season, while Dutchman Van Aanholt, 21, scored once in nine games having also spent time with Wigan Athletic during late 2011.
Before leaving Chelsea for the Netherlands, Kalas signed a contract extension with Chelsea committing him to the club until the summer of 2017.
