'Metz are trying to keep me' - Chelsea loanee Angban hopeful of France stay

Chelsea loanee Victorien Angban has admitted that he wishes to stay on at newly-promoted Ligue 1 side Metz as the clubs seek an agreement over a permanent transfer for the Ivory Coast midfielder.

Angban, who has been with Chelsea since 2015, has taken in a succession of loan moves since signing with the Stamford Bridge, spending time in Belgium with Waasland-Beveren and Sint-Truidense as well as in Spain with Granada.

His latest outing away from London saw him join up with Metz, with whom he won promotion to the French top flight after finishing Ligue 2 as Champions and took in the most appearances across a full season to date.
