Ruben Loftus-Cheek Provides Update on Chelsea Future Amid Exit Rumours

Chelsea midfielder Ruben Loftus-Cheek has reaffirmed his commitment to the club as he prepares to negotiate a new contract at Stamford Bridge.

There were fears that the England international would struggle for minutes on the pitch when he decided to battle for a place in the Blues team, rather than look elsewhere. However, he has made an admirable 38 appearances in all competitions under Maurizio Sarri and was outstanding during the first leg of the side's Europa League semi final with Eintracht Frankfurt - a game which ended 1-1.

The 23-year-old grabbed the Blues' only goal at the Commerzbank-Arena last week, whilst also netting in their latest Premier League fixture, a 3-0 victory over Watford.
