Loftus Cheek: I will decide my future after the World Cup

Ruben Loftus Cheek has said that he will avoid all talk of his future until after the World Cup has finished, according to the Daily Mirror.

The 22-year-old midfielder has had an impressive season on loan at Crystal Palace, which has seen him named in Gareth Southgate’s 23-man squad for the World Cup in Russia.

The England international will return to parent club Chelsea for pre-season and then make a decision on where he wants to play his football next term.

I am not thinking about that too much to be honest right now – I am trying to focus on this summer, this tournament is too big, I’ll be back at Chelsea in pre-season anyway and then I will decide when that comes along. I am not too worried, it will get sorted when the time comes.

Loftus Cheek has been in and around the Chelsea first team since 2012 yet has only managed 22 appearances in that time.

Making the permanent move to Crystal Palace could be the best move for the 22-year-old who is now keen to get regular playing time.
