Crystal Palace chairman Parish confirms desire to sign Chelsea loanee Gallagher

Crystal Palace chairman Steve Parish has revealed the club could make a permanent move for Conor Gallagher.

The Chelsea midfielder was denied the chance to face his parent club in the FA Cup semi-final on Sunday.

Gallagher has been a star for Palace this season, and Parish says the club will look at making something happen this summer.

Parish told reporters: "Of course. But the player is the number one person. He knows exactly what his priorities are and he knows exactly what he's doing. I'm sure at the end of the season.

"Conor will work out what he thinks the best thing for him is and that will that will be the catalyst for it

"If there's an opportunity to get him or even Ruben Loftus-Cheek then of course.

"These are top players and it's been brilliant having him here this year, not just because of what he does on the pitch. Also because of the way he is around the place, the way he is with the media and supporters and because of how special a lad he is."
