West Bromwich Albion striker Romelu Lukaku has revealed that he will only return to Chelsea when he is starting every game for the Blues.
The Belgian forward is currently on loan with the Baggies and scored his sixth goal of the season in the side's 2-1 win over Norwich City on Saturday.
Speculation has linked the Londoners with recalling the 19-year-old in January, but Lukaku insists that he wants to see out the remainder of his loan spell at the Hawthorns.
"I want to stay here. I've had so many questions in the last few weeks asking 'are you staying?' I have a lot of contact with Chelsea, but they are asking questions about my development and I tell them I'm very happy to be here," said Lukaku. "I have not spoken to the manager (Rafael Benitez) but I know what is going on. For me, it is one year loan and then hopefully it may be one year again next season.
"I need to play as much as I can in the next two years. For me, it is very important to play week in and week out because, at 19, you want to develop and I hope to be one of the great players in the Premier League. That is my ambition but I have to be patient as well. I can learn a lot here, I can improve here.
"Chelsea know this season that I'm improving, and when I go back there, I want to be a much better player than when I arrived there. My main ambition is to start in the first XI in every game at Chelsea. Chelsea know I'm a player that is hungry to play football and they will benefit from that in the future."
Chelsea signed Lukaku from Anderlecht for £18m in 2011.
