Chelsea target Enner Valencia admits the interest in him from the league leaders is a 'big compliment'.
STAR: Valencia has been linked with a big-money move to Chelsea
The Blues have outlined the West Ham striker has a possible target for the summer.
Chelsea were linked with a £20m deadline day deal for the Ecuadorian international but that failed to get off the ground.
Now, Jose Mourinho is expected to renew his interest in the summer.
Valencia said the speculation has given him the motivation to get better as a player.
He said: "I found out about it from the social networks and from what my team-mates were saying."
"Nobody said anything definite to me. But if a team like Chelsea is interested in me, it's a big compliment."
"It makes me want to keep on getting better."
The 25-year-old has scored three goals since joining the Hammers from Mexican side Pachuca last summer.
