Wales international James Chester admits he is concerned with his lack of first-team action at West Brom with the European Championship’s quickly approaching.
The Baggies turned heads when they spent £8m on the former Manchester United defender, but Chester has only started one Premier League game this season.
Chester’s lack of first-team action hasn’t come at a cost to his position on the international scene, but the 26-year-old is concerned about what repercussions it might have for next summer.
“To be playing for Wales I have to start playing for my club because it’s impossible to play at this level and not be playing week in, week out,” Chester is quoted as saying by Sky Sports News.
“I know myself I need to be playing at my club to give me the best chance of going to France and playing when we get there.”
Chester spent two years in the Premier League with Hull prior to joining West Brom over the summer and in his final season only three players completed more interceptions than the Welshman (53).
