On-loan Chelsea defender Kenneth Omeruo wants a permanent stay at Spanish La Liga side Leganes and has revealed to Sports247 that his confident a deal will be agreed upon by both parties in the coming days.
The 25-year-old joined the Blues in January 2012 but he is yet to play a competitive game for the Premier League side, having spent time on loan with Dutch side ADO Den Haag, English Championship club Middlesbrough, Turkish Super Lig’s Alanyaspor and Kasimpasa.
In August, the Nigeria international teamed up with the Cucumber Growers for his seventh loan move from Chelsea, with an option of making the deal permanent.
Omeruo has delivered decent performances to help Mauricio Pellegrino’s men keep ten clean sheets in 24 appearances.
“I want to stay in Spain but right now the club needs to pay or reach an agreement with Chelsea”
“I know they are working towards it and will reach a decision soon. I just want to keep playing well
I want to stay in Spain, maybe a bigger club. If not, the Leganes. I think this year is the year where I stay as I need a home”
