What Conor Gallagher did to prove he is N'Golo Kante's perfect partner at Chelsea

It's been a superb season for Conor Gallagher on loan from Chelsea at Crystal Palace.

The 22-year-old, who has come through the academy system at the Blues, joined the Eagles on a season-long loan deal last summer following a spell at West Bromwich Albion in the Premier League last term. Gallagher has featured 25 times for Palace in the top-flight, chipping in with 11 direct goal contributions - eight goals and three assists.

In the process, he earned his debut England call up against San Marino in a 10-0 win back in November, with Gareth Southgate clearly impressed by his development under Patrick Vieira this season. There is thought that Gallagher could return to Chelsea in the summer and fight for a place under Thomas Tuchel next term.
