Chelsea will decide if I leave on loan in January, insists De Bruyne PUBLISHED: 16:45 GMT, 16 November 2013 | UPDATED: 16:49 GMT, 16 November 2013 Chelsea midfielder Kevin de Bruyne is happy at Chelsea and will leave Jose Mourinho to decide whether he goes out on loan in January. The former Genk star has found first-team opportunities limited this season due to intense competition among the Blues' talented group of attacking midfielders. But speaking about a possible loan after playing for Belgium in their 2-0 friendly defeat to Colombia, De Bruyne said: 'Maybe. But Chelsea is my employer and they decide my future.
No regrets: Kevin de Bruyne (right), in action for Belgium against Colombia, says Chelsea will decide if he's loaned out in January 'I don't have to talk about what could happen in January now, as it's only November. A lot can still happen. 'I feel quite good. The fact that I'm playing at Chelsea is proof I always performed well. The manager told me in July that I had to stay, so I'm not a difficult person. I've no regrets.' De Bruyne, who spent a successful loan spell at German side Werder Bremen last season, played for just under an hour against Colombia with club manager Jose Mourinho watching on from the stands. Rare appearance: De Bruyne started Chelsea's opening game against Hull but has struggled to earn a regular starting spot Discussing his recent form, De Bruyne said: 'I know Mourinho was there, but I didn't bother. Sometimes it may look as if I want to force things, but in my head I am doing the same things as last year. 'If you don't play a lot at your team, you can't expect to be on top in your first game. 'It's not easy for me. I don't miss confidence, I only lack match fitness.'
