QPR's Taarabt would love to join Chelsea if he was guaranteed game time

QPR star Adel Taarabt admits he would favour a move to Chelsea if he was able to play at least half of the games.

The 22-year old Moroccan midfielder is being linked with a summer move away from Loftus Road, despite their promotion to the top flight, and he has made no secret that Chelsea is a club he would love to play for.

"I like the London clubs. I do not hide my like for Chelsea," he told Football365.fr.

"I would prefer to play regularly at QPR to being on the bench for a season at Chelsea. Now, if they told me I'd play 20 games per season, I think I'd be very tempted.

"It's currently what I'm trying to achieve (moving to a big club). Today, I have two-year contract with QPR.

"Yes, there is contact but I cannot say more, as you can imagine."
