Dijon loan signing Kakuta wants Chelsea future

Gael Kakuta won't give up on his Chelsea career.

Kakuta has joined Dijon on-loan to the end of the season.

"I could not be satisfied with a few minutes on the pitch," said Kakuta, who joined Chelsea's youth set-up in 2007. "I need more experience at Dijon to bounce back.

"I have to improve on physical and athletic levels, and being more mature in my game.

"In life there are ups and downs, but I know I have the right level to play at Chelsea. It was a kid's dream to go there.

"Even if I didn't play a lot, I learnt a lot. I have no regret. Some coaches trust young players, some not. But the club still trusts me."
