Billy Gilmour should STAY at Chelsea to fight for his place and learn from 'winners' like Phil Foden has done at Manchester City, insists Graeme Souness: 'Jorginho has to be looking over his shoulder'

Graeme Souness has urged fellow Scot Billy Gilmour to follow Phil Foden's lead and stay at Chelsea to fight for his place rather than going out on loan to Norwich City.

Gilmour, 20, was man of the match for Scotland against England at Euro 2020 but is behind N'Golo Kante, Jorginho and Mateo Kovacic in Thomas Tuchel's midfield pecking order, with newly-promoted Norwich leading to race to sign him on loan.

But Souness has told Gilmour to stay at Chelsea and learn off 'winners', just as Foden has done at Manchester City under Pep Guardiola and Souness himself did at Liverpool in the late '70s and early '80s.
