Thomas Tuchel provides update on futures of Conor Gallagher, Armando Broja

Chelsea head coach Thomas Tuchel has confirmed that Conor Gallagher and Armando Broja will both return to Stamford Bridge this summer and will be with the club for pre-season.

Gallagher has enjoyed an impressive loan spell with Crystal Palace this season, scoring eight goals and registering five assists in 37 appearances across all competitions.

Broja, meanwhile, has been a standout performer on loan at Southampton this term, netting nine times in 38 appearances in all tournaments.

Both Gallagher and Broja have been linked with permanent moves away from Chelsea, but Tuchel has revealed that the pair are in his plans ahead of the 2022-23 campaign.

"[Gallagher and Broja] will come back for sure. I want to have them in pre-season," the German boss told journalist Nizaar Kinsella.

"We will decide in pre-season what goes on. It is heavily up to Broja and Gallagher – and how they do".

Gallagher, 22, has three years remaining on his Blues contract, while Broja, 20, will see his deal in West London expire in June 2026.
