‘Given the speculation over the last six months this may not come as a surprise to you. But it doesn’t make it any easier to tell you, I’ve made the decision to leave Chelsea.

‘I know some of you won’t be happy with my decision but it’s what’s right for me at this moment in my career.

‘I joined Chelsea when I was six years old and we’ve been through a lot together. Winning the Youth Cup, my Player of the Year awards, the Super Cup, the Club World Cup and of course, that unforgettable night when we won the Champions League.

‘I want to say thank you to the academy. Jim and Neil for being so influential to me from a young age.

‘The managers I’ve worked under: Frank, Thomas, Graham

‘The backroom staff, the unsung heroes of Cobham, all of my teammates over the years who have become my brothers. My family for their continuous support and love and most importantly you guys, for sticking with me throughout. Wish you all the best.’
