However, he hasn't played a game yet for the Premier League giants since arriving at Stamford Bridge. During a press conference ahead of Chelsea's Premier League encounter against Brentford on Wednesday (October 19), Potter was asked about the midfielder's future. He replied (as quoted by ): "There's no decision been made. Denis has been in the group and training well. He is ready to help the team.
