Could be going to Swansea. Surely if we signed him for the season that’s the end of it?.. Chelsea could recall him but loaning him out again isn’t right.. it’s not as if he isn’t developing

A season long loan should mean a season long loan, add VAR and the game is becoming beyond a joke

Yes I think so too mate, and both LB and SG have said how pleased Chelsea are with his development here . I can’t see this being true, it just wouldn’t make any sense. He will learn and improve more with us under the guidance of LB.

People on Facebook/Twitter saying that he said his goodbyes to the team today and will be gone by the end of the week. Rumoured that other clubs will pay more of his wages and that Chelsea not happy with our injury situation.

If he’s said his goodbyes on Monday , why would he stay until the end of the week....? 🤔 Not on Facebook but from the things said on here in the past it sounds like they are a great source of info and are bang on most of the time..... 🧐

The rumour seems to be gathering momentum and is being reported on various sites now, but I find it hard to believe that Chelsea wouldn’t have notified Charlton first before it leaked out.
It was only the other day that SG said he hadn’t heard anything from them about a recall. I didn’t think the bid for Maddison was as s replacement for CG.

All very strange Chelsea never recalled there other loans last year .Why do it this you to go to other clubs in this division. He's developing here pretty nicely very strange indeed.

A season long loan should mean a season long loan, add VAR and the game is becoming beyond a joke Couldn't agree more- Teams plan around these valuable loans and to have the rug snatched from under your feet is a kick in the arse. It wouldn't be so bad if the club that loaned them needed them back- but this won't be the case.

If he was going back to feature in Chelsea's first team then I would understand, but to just loan him to another club is disrespectful.

I have no idea whether there is anything in the rumours about Conor Gallagher, but its rare there is smoke without any fire.
There are a number of reasons why Chelsea may choose to move him elsewhere for the remainder of the season. It would be very tough on us if they decide to do that, but its a risk you take with loans. Its a dog eat dog world and let's not forget that this scenario is exactly what happened last season with Ben Purrington.
Rotherham didn't think he was good enough for the Championship, or at least not ready, so they loaned him out. He played regularly at AFC Wimbledon who, I'm sure, were keen to retain him. Instead, Rotherham recalled him and sent him on loan to us. We are a bigger club than Wimbledon, probably paid a greater share of his wages, played a higher quality of football, which may have helped his development, and were probably more likely to pay a transfer fee and convert the loan to a permanent if it came to that.
For Rotherham, AFC Wimbledon, us read Chelsea, us, Swansea City, for example.
Fingers crossed we keep him.

A season long loan should mean a season long loan, add VAR and the game is becoming beyond a joke I don't disagree but you were adament a week, or so, ago that we should send the Brighton players back. We can't have it both ways. Either a season long loan is exactly that or it has recall, or send back, clauses. It is even more unreasonable if the club that is not paying all of the wages, paid no transfer fee and offers the player no long term contract, is able to refuse to send one player back while insisting on sending another one back. Clearly I hope that Gallacher stays but we should recognise that there is, virtually, no other way we can have players of his quality in out squad in the Championship so we should be grateful that we have him at all. The same could, clearly, be said for Bielik and Cullen last season, without whom I'm not sure we would have been promoted at all.

Yes agree with that Mundell, this is exactly the problem with having loan players instead of permanent signings, and it’s something that SG has said he wants to change in future. Regarding Connor, I think it would at least be more understandable, if Chelsea had decided they wanted to send him to a Premier League team, but if it’s Swansea, it makes no sense. He will learn as much with us or probably more. We will need Maddison or another, even more if this is true, and it’s rare for so much talking about it if there is no foundation. Where is MS when you need him.

Its Chelsea's choice. Chelsea are interested in Connor's development from footballing youth to man. That's what they are seeing and what they want back is an A grade pro footballer. They have proof this is succeeding at Charlton and strong commitment to continue. I'm sure they feel Connor's well being is being looked after in every respect. He'll get all the relevant coaching to fit him into the Chelsea squad during pre season. The current money bit is irrelevant. I can't see a footballing argument for Chelsea to choose to recall Connor to send him anywhere else.
Looking at it from a Connors choice point of view I'd suggest he'd see mainly downside and no upside to exercise his choice to go anywhere else given the strong commitments made to him by Charlton club, players and fans.
Going anywhere else is high risk for no visible reward.

Rich Cawley now saying "Looking very likely that Conor Gallagher heading back to Chelsea. Set to be loaned straight back out to a club at the top end of the Championship."
Disappointing.

Maybe with our injuries Chelsea felt he was overplayed and a serious injury became a real possibility. Anyway he’s gone now. Thanks for the memories and good luck with the future

Just doesn't make sense wouldn't bother doing anymore business with Chelsea. They never recalled the other loan players they had out last season.

That's bad, he must not like it here then otherwise he wouldn't leave.
Hope he doesn't end up at Millwall, well wouldn't fit in their team they don't play good football.

Disappointing news if true, but he is a Loanee and not our player and there is always that risk of a recall, when you rely heavily on the loan market. I would like to thank Conor for his hard work and contribution to the club.
Hopefully however, the club will be able to move on from reliance of the loan market with the new owners seemingly looking to sign permanent players. This will inevitably mean that the big clubs will have one less outlet to develop their young players, so they can lose out themselves on decisions like Chelsea have done.
