Revealed: Why Chelsea cannot recall both Gallagher & Gilmour from their loan spells as after latest decision

Both Chelsea midfielders Conor Gallagher and Billy has impressed on loan at Premier League side Crystal Palace and Norwich City. However, there have been talks about the midfielders returning to Chelsea in January.

However, it’s now clear that Chelsea can no longer recall either Billy Gilmour or Conor Gallagher from their loan spells this season.

According to The Athletic, both midfielders have made the minimum number of appearances, as stated in their contract, to prevent their parent club (Chelsea) from recalling them in January.

21-year-old Gallagher has played 16 games for Crystal Palace this term, scoring 6 goals and 3 assists.

Meanwhile, Gilmour who was struggling initially for minutes at Norwich when Daniel Farke was in charge is now a mainstay in the first team.

The 20-year-old has started every game for Norwich since Dean Smith took over. He even registered an assist in the match against Southampton.

Altogether, Gilmour has played 12 games for Norwich this season.
