Mateo Kovacic believes that his final settlement at Stamford Bridge has been a key reason for his improved performances this season.
The Croatia international has joined Chelsea from Real Mardid, having suffered last season when used on the left of three in midfield by Maurizio Sarri.
However, the 25-year-old was able to impress at the English club. Frank Lampard's side have made a decision on signing him with a permanent deal.
And Kovacic believes that being settled in London has become the key reason of the positive change in his form.
He told
Chelsea:
"Maybe it is because I have signed here [permanently] so now I am more calm. Because last year was a loan, it was maybe more difficult to prove myself, but this year I feel a lot better because I had one year’s adaptation and now I am feeling good. The guys are amazing, the staff are really good and my family is happy. It is really important to me that my family feels good and for now everything is amazing so we are enjoying everything about London and Chelsea, it’s really nice."
