Chelsea youngster eyeing deadline loan move to Premier League side
Chelsea fans might not be having any chances of seeing young midfielder Billy Gilmour play for the club again this season as he continues to be linked with a move away from Stamford Bridge.
Billy Gilmour caught the eyes of Chelsea fans with his great performance under Frank Lampard before the English trainer was sacked some week ago.
The 19 years old debut season in the first team was halted with a knee injury but he’s back to his best as he’s been playing in cup competition.
However, the arrival of Thomas Tuchel at Chelsea has cast more doubt on his playing chances as the German tactician has been opting for experienced players in his midfield.
With the transfer window set to close in the next few hours, Gilmour has been linked with a move to Southampton who are ready to give him a chance in their first team.
According to Daily Mail, the youngster is eager to make the Euro 2020 list with Scotland and is ready to leave Chelsea on loan so as to get more experience and playing time.
Billy Gilmour is ranked high among the list of young players in Europe and Chelsea might be hoping he signs a long-term deal before moving for greener pastures.
