Chelsea midfielder Ruben Loftus-Cheek is part of England’s World Cup squad after a successful loan spell at Crystal Palace last season.

The 22-year-old midfielder has revealed he won’t be happy sitting on the bench at Chelsea next season and knows his England place will be in danger if he isn’t playing regularly.

“Going forward I’ve really realised the importance of playing regularly for my own progress and development” said Loftus-Cheek.

“I felt like I got better and better every game at Palace so playing regularly is the key going forward and that will help me make my decision after the World Cup.”
