Israel midfielder Yossi Benayoun cannot wait to get started on his Chelsea career after completing his move from Liverpool. The 30-year-old became Carlo Ancelotti's first summer signing and will meet up with his Blues team-mates when he reports for pre-season training on Monday. "Everything looks lovely. It is a great training ground and you can see it is one of the best clubs in the world from the way the people here treat you," he told club website www.chelseafc.com. "I met a few of the staff and the players I know a little bit from playing. It is a good challenge for me and I am ready for it. "There are a lot of good players, big players. For me it is the beginning and I have to work hard and prove I can bring something to this club. "The only thing I can promise is I will work hard and do my best, and hopefully it will be good enough."
