"It’s heavily linked to them" - Thomas Tuchel outlines plans for 2 Chelsea stars ahead of important summer

 

Chelsea coach Thomas Tuchel has revealed that he wants Conor Gallagher and Armando Broja to take part in the Blues’ pre-season this season. The German added that the fate of the two loanees will depend on how well they perform and “integrate” with the team.

Conor Gallagher has spent the 2021-22 campaign on loan at Crystal Palace . Under Patrick Vieira, Gallagher has emerged as one of the Premier League’s standout performers, recording eight goals and three assists in the English top-flight.

Armando Broja, on the other hand, is currently on loan at Southampton. He has not scored as many goals (six) as Gallagher, but his classic center-forward traits have impressed many.

With both Chelsea loanees performing admirably in the 2021-22 campaign, questions have been raised about their fate next season. When asked whether or not Gallagher and Broja would be seen in Chelsea’s famous blue kit next term, Tuchel said (via 90min):

“They will come back, for sure, because they are our players. When we [send] them on loan, we do this for them but also for us, to have better players, more experienced players back.”

Tuchel added that he would decide what to do with them only after the pre-season. The German manager added:

“They are our players and I want to have them in pre-season and in pre- season we will decide what’s going on. It’s heavily linked to them…how they integrate and what they do and what our ideas are for them and what they want to reach.”
