The future of Conor Gallagher at Chelsea is up for debate.
It has been reported that no fewer than five clubs were interested in signing the midfielder before transfer deadline day, but Chelsea were unwilling to sanction a move before they had secured the services of Enzo Fernandez.

At the same time, there have also been suggestions that he could be offered a new deal at Stamford Bridge, and that he will not form part of the expected summer clear-out.
