Gallagher upbeat on Chelsea contract talks

Chelsea homegrown talent Conor Gallagher has suggested his future lies at the club.

Despite being linked with a move away in the summer, Gallagher stood his ground and remained at Stamford Bridge.

After getting significant game time so far this term, he is confident of signing a new deal.

Speaking on international duty, Gallagher said: "I'm sure that will get sorted out, everyone knows Chelsea is my club and I love playing for them.

"The fans are brilliant and I'm loving right now and I'm sure it will get itself sorted out."

“A lot was going on in the summer, a big transition in the club, a lot of players coming in, a lot of players leaving," Gallagher added.

"I was lucky enough to stay and be a part of the manager's plans, whatever he wants me to do I have been doing and I will keep working as hard as possible for him.

"It was a crazy period in terms of ins and outs at Chelsea and I had conversations with the manager and he expressed that he liked me as a player and I was in his plans and I was really happy with that."
