Everton have suffered a blow in their hopes of landing Conor Gallagher this summer after the midfielder confirmed he will be staying at Chelsea this season following talks with Thomas Tuchel.
Gallagher has been one name continually linked with a move to the Blues so far this summer. The England international has previously worked with Frank Lampard at Stamford Bridge.
The 22-year-old has spent the last three seasons on loan with Swansea City, West Brom and, most recently, Crystal Palace. Gallagher enjoyed a positive campaign at Selhurst Park last season, making 39 appearances in all competitions.
