Palace, Newcastle battling to sign Chelsea starlet on loan

Gallagher is yet to make his senior debut for Chelsea. In 2019/20, he played a total of 47 games while on loan with Championship sides Charlton Athletic and Swansea City.

The 21-year-old then joined West Brom ahead of the 2020/21 campaign as they returned to the Premier League.

Gallagher was one of their shining lights as he impressed under Sam Allardyce from his 32 outings across all competitions.
