Chelsea’s Andreas Christensen admits he is finding it hard to not be playing but has refused to think about a January move.
The Denmark international was named the Blues’ young player of the year last season after making 27 appearances in the Premier League.
However, boss Maurizio Sarri has switched to a back four this season and Antonio Rudiger and David Luiz have been his regular centre-backs.

The 22-year-old has now dropped down the pecking order but has refused to discuss a loan move as he tries to fight for his place.
He told Bold: ‘I do not know. I have not thought so, so I do not want to comment on that. Right now, it’s not a good season for me, but I have to find some way to get back on. How? I do not know, but it’s up to myself to figure out.
‘But right now it looks hard. We have good results and we play super good football, which only makes it harder. It’s hard for me personally, but for the team it looks great.’
