He stated, per The Express: Mauricio spoke to me a lot when I was at Chelsea. I have a good relationship with him and his coaching staff.
I had a meeting with him in his office it was my decision to go see him and told him I wanted to go out on loan in January.
I needed first-team minutes, to go out and prove myself. I wasn't nervous about telling him at all.
I needed to do it for myself and it was the best decision. I wanted to be honest with him, to tell it to him straight. He accepted and understood. He wants what is best for me."
