Nicolas Anelka has admitted that new signing Ramires is a shy boy.
The £18,2m midfielder – a summer buy from Benfica made his Chelsea bow in the 2-0 over Stoke City on Saturday.
Anelka said: “He is new and shy, and it is normal because this is a new club for him. The language is difficult for him because he doesn't speak English.
“He will get used to it when he has more games and he learns to speak English.
“We are all making him welcome, There are a lot of players who speak Portuguese – this is good for him.”
