#2 Conor Gallagher
Academy Player of the Year for 2018-19, Conor Gallagher is a highly rated midfielder who already has won the Under-17 FIFA World Cup in India. Technically sound, Gallagher plays as a box to box midfielder alongside the likes of Billy Gilmour and George MacEachran for the junior Chelsea sides and is on the verge of breaking into the senior side as well.
He was even called up by Maurizio Sarri for the Europa League final with Ruben Loftus-Cheek unavailable at the time with his ability to make late runs into the box and break down opposition attacks being a trademark of his style of play.
Although Gallagher could be loaned out given the fact Mateo Kovacic is on the verge of signing for the Blues, he could benefit from Jody Morris, Frank Lampard's assistant and previously the academy coach. Among several highly-talented individuals at the club, Conor Gallagher is one footballer who should make a mark with his skill-set being highly suited to Frank Lampard's high-pressing game-play.
