Arsenal target Petr Cech admits that he is ready to take the ‘emotionally difficult’ decision to leave Chelsea this summer in search of regular football.

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has insisted that he doesn’t want to lose the 33-year-old this summer, but it seems the Czech Republic international is set to leave the club.




A regular until last season, Cech was relegated to being the second choice goalkeeper behind Thibaut Courtois this term at Stamford Bridge but the 33-year-old is not keen to spend one more campaign warming the bench.

With only one year left on his contract, Cech is ready to take the emotionally tough decision to leave Chelsea this summer as he admits that he wants to play regular football next season.
 


“I want to play every week. I would like to join a club where I am a regular”, Cech was quoted as saying by Eurosport.

“During the holidays, I will sit down and make a decision.

“It will be emotionally difficult to leave Chelsea but these things happen in football.”

A number of top clubs across Europe, including Chelsea’s London rivals Arsenal, are keen to sign the veteran custodian this summer.

Cech has made 493 appearances for the club and won four Premier League titles, four FA Cups, three League Cups, a Champions League, a Europa League and a UEFA Super Cup with Chelsea.
