Conor Gallagher's stance on Chelsea future and if he would consider loan deal ahead of World Cup

Conor Gallagher has reaffirmed that he is yet to really think about what comes next after completing his loan with Crystal Palace. He did not rule out whether his temporary move to the Eagles would be his final outing away from Chelsea.

The young Blues star enjoyed an outstanding move to Selhurst Park, which saw him record eight goals and five assists for the Eagles and earn his way into Gareth Southgate's England set-up. It was Gallagher's fourth loan move following spells with Charlton Athletic, Swansea City and West Brom. This all came after a period where he won the under-17 World Cup with England in 2017 before being named Chelsea's Academy Player of the Year in 2018/19 - a year in which he made the bench for the Europa League final under Maurizio Sarri.

football.london understands that in a recent meeting between Thomas Tuchel and Gallagher, the 22-year-old was assured that he would be an important player for the Blues next season. However, it seems the Cobham product remains coy on his situation for now.
