Chelsea extend Billy Gilmour's contract at Stamford Bridge by a year as the promising midfielder faces battle to fight his way into Blues boss Thomas Tuchel's plans ahead of the new season

Chelsea have extended Billy Gilmour's contract until 2024 after exercising an option to prolong the midfielder's stay at Stamford Bridge by a further year.

The 22-year-old's deal at Chelsea had been due to expire in June 2023 after he signed for £500,000 from Rangers when he was 16.
