He was just one of 38 Chelsea players that completed loan moves away from Stamford Bridge this summer but Tomas Kalas has now revealed the motivations behind his switch, report The Express.

The Czech Republic international is currently on a season-long loan to Championship neighbours Fulham and spoke openly about what he’s looking to get out of his spell with the Cottagers.

“To play games, that’s what I need,” Kalas told the official Chelsea website. “That’s the first point. 

“The second point is to win something. I got promoted with Middlesbrough and I think Fulham have the squad to get promoted as well.”

Kalas has been on Chelsea’s books for six years now having signed from Sigma Olomouc back in 2010 and huge questions have previously been raised over the Blues’ controversial stockpiling of talent.

Only appearing once for the Blues’ first team in that six-year period, Kalas’ season-long loan to Fulham is the seventh temporary agreement he’s signed in his career so far.

Starting eight Fulham games under Slavisa Jokanovic so far this season, Kalas is clearly getting the game time he craves right now although questions will remain over the true worth of being on Chelsea’s books.
