Chelsea midfielder Cesare Casadei is happy with his progress on-loan at Reading.

After scoring four times in eight starts for the Blues U21 side, the 20-year-old moved to Reading in order to further aide his development.

Royals manager Paul Ince has since handed the youngster five Championship starts and he scored his first goal in senior football against Blackburn earlier this month.

Speaking of his move, Casadei talked of Ince's impact and revealed Ruben Loftus-Cheek left a particular impression on him during his training sessions with Chelsea.

“I feel good at Reading as Paul Ince is helping me a lot. Inter? I'm now focused on following English football since I moved to Chelsea — I want to improve," he said.

“Loftus-Cheek has impressed me in the training sessions. One of my models as midfielder is [Federico] Valverde".
