But it just hasn’t happened for Loftus-Cheek, who has made just three appearances for the London club so far this term and that has led to speculation both Arsenal and Liverpool are ready to make cheeky moves and get a bargain deal done.
Now the Metro website has reported that Loftus-Cheek is ready to give up on his dream to play for Chelsea and is ready to ditch Stamford Bridge in the January transfer window in a bid to continue his very impressive development.
Former England boss Sam Allardyce believes it’s time for Loftus-Cheek to finally call it a day with Chelsea, telling the TalkSport website: “I’m disappointed for Loftus-Cheek.
“Chelsea have told him he’s going to be a part of the team this season and, if that is the case, they haven’t lived up to that yet.
“What he did for Crystal Palace last season and for England at the World Cup, I thought this would be a big season for him at Chelsea, but it’s simply not happening.
“If I were Loftus-Cheek I would be battering the door down in January and saying, ‘that’s it, I need to get away’.
“And not on loan, get away from Chelsea properly and build his own career.
“He’s had the taste of playing first team football at Palace and obviously he loves Chelsea, but it’s not happening for him there.
“He’s got to play. He’s too talented not to play, we’ve all seen that.”
Could Arsenal seriously make a move for Loftus-Cheek? Here is what we think.

The lad is a talent and needs to play more regularly if he is to develop into the player that many Chelsea fans expect, it is just a shame there is so mnay great players at Stamford Bridge already, meaning his chances are limited.
But with Aaron Ramsey all set to leave Arsenal, could Loftus-Cheek be the ideal replacement for the Welshman?
