Nigerian star Kenneth Omeruo set to quit Chelsea this summer


Super Eagles defender Kenneth Omeruo is set to leave Premier League club Chelsea

The Nigerian international is frustrated after spending five years on loan

He is ready to find another top League side where he would get regular playing time

After spending five years on loan, Nigerian international Kenneth Omeruo has admitted that he will leave Premier League club Chelsea for him to secure a permanent deal elsewhere.

The 23-year-old Super Eagles defender has yet to play for the Blues since signing in January 2012 and is out on loan for a fourth time at Turkey's Alanyaspor.

Many pundits have tipped Kenneth Omeruo to replace Englishman John Terry who will be leaving the club at the end of the current League season, but Antonio Conte seems not to be looking at the direction of the Nigerian.

NAIJ.com however understands that Omeruo is not happy with his current situation.

"It might happen that I get to play for Chelsea but it is no longer my immediate priority. You have no idea how frustrating it is to always go out on loan.

"Last season I had an opportunity to go to one of Turkey's biggest clubs [Besiktas] but the deal collapsed two days to the end of the transfer window.

"This season I was lucky I could find a place where I could still play because they want me to come to Alanyaspor.

"My priority is to play at the top and to find a place where I get to play regularly.

"Next season will be interesting because I'm looking to be in one of the top Leagues, so we'll see what happens." Omeruo explained.
