De Bruyne admits: I don't know if Mourinho wants me to stay
By John Edwards - PUBLISHED:08:37 GMT, 5 June 2013
Kevin De Bruyne has admitted he is in the dark over his Chelsea future and
fears he may have to go out on loan again to keep his World Cup dreams
alive.
The Belgium winger, who spent the season with Werder Bremen, could be
playing for any one of four teams next season after provisionally agreeing
terms with Bayer Leverkusen, Borussia Dortmund and Schalke and waiting to
hear whether he will be wanted at Stamford Bridge.
Dortmund are keen to sign him on a permanent deal, while Leverkusen have
been applying pressure to take him on loan as part of a transfer that
would free up Germany midfielder Andre Schurrle's ￡20million move to
Chelsea.
Nothing has yet been agreed, despite claims in one German newspaper last
week that Leverkusen had a deal in place, but De Bruyne senses he may be
farmed out again, as new Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho looks for proven
talent rather than potential.
With places up for grabs at next summer's World Cup finals, the 21-year
old conceded he would rather be playing in Germany than sitting on the
bench at Stamford Bridge.
'I haven't spoken to Jose Mourinho, so I don't know what he thinks of me
as a player or what his plans are for me,' he said, ahead of Friday's
qualifier with Serbia.
'Logically, at big teams like Chelsea, the manager tends to go for the
more experienced players, and the younger ones have more chances at
smaller teams.
'For me, who the coach is doesn't really matter. What counts is being at a
team where I am going to play games. I want to progress and improve as a
player, and I need to be playing to do that.
'Really my future is something for my agent to sort out with the clubs.
All I can say is all options are open. After the Serbia game, I am off on
holiday to Los Angeles for a fortnight. At the moment, I don't know if
I'll be spending pre-season at Chelsea or somewhere else. We will see what
happens.'
The picture for De Bruyne may be clearer after Michael Ballack's
testimonial on Wednesday night against a World X1 that will be coached by
Mourinho.
Leverkusen sporting director Rudi Voller has admitted he will seek talks
with Mourinho about Schurrle after the game and reiterate his club's wish
to include a season-long loan for De Bruyne in any package.
