Chelsea youngster Ruben Loftus-Cheek has stated that he wants to repay the club for showing such faith in him, and not letting him leave out on loan this season, Squawka reports.
The 20-year-old is yet to make a Premier League appearance this season, but has been guided to a new role at the team, as Antonio Conte prefers the natural attacking midfielder to play as a complete forward in a two-striker formation.
He started upfront next to Michy Batshuayi when Chelsea won Bristol Rovers 3-2 in the second round of EFL Cup last month, and was able to assist one of the Belgian’s two goals.
Regardless of him yet making an outing in the league this term, the England U21 international is ready to wait for his opportunity and sees the fact of not being sent out on loan as a statement of faith shown in him by the manager and club.
It is good for confidence that he believes in my potential, and I just want to give back to the club.
They have shown faith in wanting me to stay and I want to repay that – and when I play, help us win.
Loftus-Cheek joined The Blues when he was just eight-years-old, and has been tipped as one of the biggest prospects in English football.
He made a breakthrough in Academy and finally debuted in January 2015 coming on for Oscar in a draw against Manchester City.
