West Bromwich Albion and Swansea City have joined Burnley in the chase for Chelsea midfielder Conor Gallagher.

The 19-year-old is expected to cut short his season-long loan at Charlton this month.

Premier League club Burnley are thought to be frontrunners for Gallagher's signature.

The Clarets want the creative midfielder to replace Danny Drinkwater who is a loan target for Aston Villa.

Gallagher is one of the shining lights in Chelsea's academy; winning the FA Youth Cup in 2016-17 and 2017-18.

And he made a flying start to life at Charlton, scoring six goals and providing three assists in 24 Championship appearances this season.
