Crystal Palace are looking to add to their midfield options in the summer transfer window, according to reports from the Express, and Chelsea’s loaned out starlet Conor Gallagher has caught the attention of the Eagles.
Gallagher signed for the newly promoted West Brom last summer and has established himself to be a first-team regular for the relegation-threatened outfit over the course of this ongoing top-flight campaign.
He has earned much praise for his consistent level of showings in the centre of the park for Sam Allardyce’s men but with the Baggies staring hard at the prospects of falling down to the Championship, Gallagher would be keen on signing for another side in England’s top tier division.
The 21-year-old midfield prodigy, whose deal with Chelsea runs for another four years, is not expected to feature much in the first-team plans for the new Blues gaffer Thomas Tuchel and speculation is rife that the Englishman could seal an exit from Stamford Bridge come this summer.
Chelsea have been reportedly keeping tabs on a number of big-name players heading into the close of this season and with the likes of Jorginho and Kurt Zouma linked with departures, Tuchel would be forced to bring in fresh faces on west London.
