Conor Gallagher's future at Chelsea is uncertain as the club have yet to make any effort to hand him a new contract and have offered him to clubs this summer. Tottenham and West Ham had been thought to be the front runners in the race to sign the 23-year-old England international midfielder, but Blues head coach Mauricio Pochettino declared that Gallagher was still very much a part of his plans.
It has since been revealed that Gallagher is still one of six players Chelsea are looking to sell this summer, despite his intention to stay and fight for his spot at the club. Reports suggest that although Pochettino is a big fan of the player, Chelsea are still not negotiating a new contract for him, leaving his future up in the air.
Gallagher is currently under contract until 2025 and, last month, Pochettino commented on the matter: "Conor is in our plans, I was talking with him the first day I arrived. In football, things can happen we cannot manage. At the moment, I am happy with him and his performance, he has two years on his contract."
Gallagher had a strong start to the new season, impressing in Chelsea's 1-1 draw against Liverpool at Stamford Bridge. However, the Blues' recent signings of Moises Caicedo and Romeo Lavia could see Gallagher's playing time in west London dramatically reduced.
It is yet to be seen what the future holds for Conor Gallagher at Chelsea.
