Marko Marin makes the Premier League title his number one target in his debut season at Chelsea.

Chelsea newcomer Marko Marin has made the league his number one priority as he gets ready for his first season in English football.

The 23-year-old playmaker expects his new club to challenge for trophies on all fronts.

"If you play for such a team as Chelsea you want to win trophies, like last year with the Champions League and the FA Cup," Marin said.

"The Premier League I think is the best league in the world and to win this, that is my aim."

Marin joined his new side for pre-season training this week and wants to have an instant impact at Stamford Bridge.

He said: "I think I am an offensive player, more a winger, so I hope I can give a lot of assists to strikers so they score a lot of goals and they help the team."

Chelsea face Manchester City in the Community Shield at Villa Park on August 12.
