Chelsea loanee gives update on his future after six loan moves away from Stamford Bridge

Chelsea loanee Kenneth Omeruo has given an update on his future at Stamford Bridge - saying he would like to make his sixth loan spell away his last.

The Nigerian international is currently on loan at La Liga outfit Leganes having signed for the club in August and has made 24 appearances so far this season.

Thats 24 more than he's ever made for Chelsea - having signed from Standard Liege in 2012 he's been sent out on loan to five different clubs, including Den Haag in Holland, Middlesbrough, Kasimpasa, Alanyaspor and now Leganes, and has yet to feature competitively for the Blues

It looks unlikely that will ever happen - Omeruo is enjoying his time in Spain and sees a future for himself in La Liga, a league that he believes suits his style of football.

Speaking to BBC Sport, Omeruo said: "The Chelsea management have never stopped me from making important career decisions and they've been very supportive," he added.

"It will be a decision between both clubs, but personally I hope I'll be a Leganes player for next season and beyond.

"I deserve stability in my career as a footballer. Leganes and Spanish football provides me with the continuity and right environment for career growth.

"After enduring instability with different loan moves, it's time to finally settle down with my young family.

"Leganes fans and club officials have been awesome to my family which has helped me mentally and physically.

"It has also helped me with the national team and to connect with fans back home because La Liga is on television in Nigeria.

"I'd love to stay at this football club and hopefully that will happen."
