Conor Gallagher could be promoted to Chelsea first-team next season

Chelsea midfielder Conor Gallagher could be promoted to the first-team squad following his season-long loan at West Bromwich Albion, according to Goal.com.

The 21-year-old spent the previous campaign on loan with Charlton Athletic and Swansea City respectively, before making the temporary switch to the Baggies last summer.

He has been a regular for the Midlands outfit in the Premier League with 23 appearances, registering two goals and two assists.

His performances have left a good impression, and Goal claims that he is the front-runner among the loaned out players to get into Thomas Tuchel’s squad.
