Chelsea keeper Petr Cech has confirmed he is ‘in love with the Premier League’, but admits he would consider a move to Barcelona if the opportunity arose.
The 25-year-old is currently out of action with a calf muscle strain, but is expected to return to action following the international break.
Speaking to Czech website fotbal.idnes.cz, Cech said: “So far I have been very happy at Chelsea and I have started to love the Premier League.
“In the case of Barcelona showing interest, yes, certainly it would be worth considering.”
Cech continued: “In London I miss only my friends from the Czech Republic, otherwise I have got used to the way of life and my wife and I like it.
“Can I imagine to staying in England? That I cannot [give an] answer to.”
Following an indifferent start to the campaign and the high-profile departure of manager Jose Mourinho, Chelsea have picked up in recent weeks under new boss Avram Grant.
Cech, though, admitted: “It is hard to judge that [Grant’s impact] after such a short period. Jose Mourinho’s departure was very emotional for some players.”
Chelsea have moved up to fourth in the Premier League table and also look on course to reach the last 16 of the Champions League.
Cech maintains Chelsea will be looking to pile pressure on League leaders Arsenal, whom they play at Emirates Stadium on December 16.
“We will definitely be making their path more complicated,” he said.
“The most important period is going to be at Christmas again when a lot of matches are played and mostly this is when much will be decided or at least revealed.
“The title race is still open.”
