Chelsea midfielder Nathan Ake has insisted that he has no regrets about committing his long-term future to the Blues.
Ake signed a five-year contract at Stamford Bridge last summer, but he only made one senior appearance for Jose Mourinho's side over the course of the season, which came as a substitute against Cardiff City on the final weekend.
However, despite being happy in West London, Ake believes that a loan move away from the club would aid his development.
The 19-year-old told Voetbal International: "I think about the game totally differently. I have had no regrets about my choice, and I have developed well.
"Next season, I want to be playing minutes. A loan spell at an English club would be best."
Ake, who helped Chelsea's reserve side to league and cup success last season, is a regular in the Netherlands Under-21 squad.
