Ghana defender Baba Rahman says he will make Ghanaians proud with his performances for Chelsea if they keep supporting him to excel with the English Premier League champions.

The 21-year-old made his debut in the Chelsea first team during Wednesday's Champions League victory over Israeli side Maccabi Tel Aviv.

The former Asante Kotoko star from Tamale is already a regular for his national side after making his Black Stars bow last year.

Ghana manager Avram Grant was working as a pundit at Stamford Bridge for the Champions League tie.

Rahman said he was only "a little" happy with own performance against the Israeli title holders, but said he would leave it to his two watching coaches to write their own reviews.

"If the people in Ghana keep supporting me I can make them proud," he added.

Having won a place in the team and helped Chelsea return to winning ways, Rahman is now looking ahead to winning silverware with his new club.

"Last year we won the Premier League and Carling Cup and this year we want to win them again, we want to win them again and the Champions League. We want to win as many cups as we can."
