Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel has promised to give Conor Gallagher the chance to fight for his place after the pair had a meeting at the end of the season.
That's according to football.london, who reported that Gallagher was keen to stay at Chelsea and work his way into the first-team, and Tuchel has assured the midfielder that he will be given the opportunity to do so. The Chelsea star has flourished on loan at Crystal Palace this season, and has since been called up to the England squad.
Palace fans would have been wishing for Gallagher to stay, but the midfielder penned an emotional farewell to his Instagram, signalling the end of his stay at Selhurst Park. And it appears that a meeting with Tuchel may have helped the midfielder make up his mind.
