AC Milan new boy Ruben Loftus-Cheek says frustration at the way he was being used by Chelsea was the trigger for his £15m summer move.
He has signed a four-year contract with Milan and is set to be joined by former Blues team-mate Christian Pulisic.
Loftus-Cheek, 27, had been with Chelsea for almost two decades.
"I love the club and the fans but I wasn't feeling content with the amount I was playing and the positions I was playing in," the midfielder said.
He scored seven goals in 155 appearances and won the Premier League twice, as well as the Europa League, during his time at the club.
