Joao Pedro called his first departure for Chelsea “ Dream ” after shooting his new club in the Club World Cup final.
Pedro did not finish his move of 60 million pounds until last week last week, but scored two brilliant goals to see Fluminense in New Jersey.
The striker began his career with the Brazilian club before moving to Watford and did not celebrate any goal.

He told Dazn, “I think it was a dream. I don’t think it could have been better. Two goals. Now we have to think about the final. I am very happy to score two goals today.
“I am happy to score my first goal for Chelsea, but I also know that this tournament is very important for Fluminense. I can just say sorry but I have to be professional. I play for Chelsea. They pay me to score goals and today I was happy to score. ”
Chelsea will now play Real Madrid or the winners of the PSG Champions League in the Sunday’s final and Joao Pedro hopes to win his first major trophy with The Blues.
He said: “It would also be my first title. I think it will be a very important game, a very special game. I came a week ago and now I’m going to play a final.
“I am very happy. The team welcomed me very much and now we have to move forward. ”
