Chelsea striker Demba Ba insists that he has not signed for the Blues to push Fernando Torres out of his starting place.

Chelsea striker Demba Ba has insisted that new teammate Fernando Torres remains the "main man" at Stamford Bridge, despite the Senegal international's arrival.

The 27-year-old finalised a switch to the Champions League winners last Friday and found the back of the net in his debut during the Blues' 5-1 win over Southampton in the FA Cup third round on Saturday.

"I'm just here to help the team, it's not about taking the position of someone," the London Evening Standard quotes Ba as saying.

"I know Fernando is the main man. I just came here to learn from people. His history is much better than mine and I will learn a lot from him."

Torres has netted 26 goals since moving to Chelsea from Liverpool in 2011, while Ba has scored 37 times over the same time period.
