Omeruo believes another loan move to Middlesbrough is the best option for
him at this stage of his career following talks with Jose Mourinho and
Michael Emenalo.
Omeruo signed a new long-term deal at Chelsea in May but does not figure in
Mourinho’s first-team plans for this season and Boro boss Aitor Karanka
confirmed earlier this week that he would be coming back to The Riverside on
loan.
The 20-year-old defender spent time with the Championship club last season
and is happy to be heading back there, having spoken with Chelsea boss
Mourinho and technical director Michael Emenalo about his future.
“I had a chat with Michael Emenalo and after hearing the plans Chelsea had
for me next season, I think the best place for me to achieve this goal is to
go back to Middlesbrough,” he told supersport.com.
“I want to thank Chelsea and according to Mourinho, Middlesbrough is the
best place for me to gain enough experience and play a lot of games.
“I made a decision after hearing from Mourinho and Emenalo and I am happy
with my decision.”
