With John Obi Mikel having completed a move to China, young midfielder Ruben Loftus-Cheek has now become an important member of the first team squad at Stamford Bridge.

Although he’s unlikely to dispose N’Golo Kante or Nemanja Matic from the starting eleven on a regular basis, the 20-year-old gives Conte another option in the middle of the park, and got an assist in an all round promising display against Peterborough in the FA Cup two weeks ago.

With Cesc Fabregas’ future slightly uncertain, Loftus-Cheek could be the next in command in that midfield area, so giving him more time on the pitch in the Premier League may be invaluable for both the player and the team.
