Ampadu, Guehi and Gallagher have the talent to return from loan to boost Chelsea first team next season


CHELSEA are expected to have a busy summer in the transfer market with a number of players likely to leave, and new players set to arrive.

Frank Lampard has found himself a little short on players this season with a host of injuries to first team players.

So with some players expected to be on their way out of the Stamford Bridge exit door, there might be a few loan players that Lampard could look to bring back in and give them a place in his first team squad.

There are three players currently out on loan who I believe have the talent to be an asset to Lampard’s squad next season, and I believe he will consider taking back.

Ampadu has had a disastrous loan with RB Leipzig in the Bundesliga this season, but I don’t believe this will affect his Chelsea future. When he has played, he has been excellent.

Lampard may like him to go back out on another loan, one that gives him more first team football. But I believe that it all rests on his performances for Wales in the European Championships this summer.

I believe that he will show the world what he is capable of, and along with that, his versatility will persuade Lampard to keep him in the senior squad moving forward, and not only that – he will nail down a regular spot, he is THAT good.

The England under-21 international joined Swansea City on loan in January and has since made 5 appearances for them.

Lampard is keen on bringing in a more dominant centre back with leadership qualities, and Guehi could fit that bill. He is physically present and certainly has the ability to be a real leader in the team, as well as being good in the air and good on the ball.

This is dependent on what happens with other centre backs, but he will certainly be considered by Lampard when it comes to decision time in the summer.

An English box-to-box goal scoring versatile midfielder who is good defensively and attacking, remind you of anyone?

Yes, Gallagher is the one they like to compare the most with Lampard during his playing days, and there are many similarities already. This will only bode well for the 20-year old who is also on loan with Swansea City, as he looks to break into the Chelsea first team.

Gallagher has been more of a regular than Guehi in the Swansea team after proving his worth at Charlton during the first half of the season scoring 6 goals for them.

The fact that he can also play anywhere in midfield will be a plus point as Lampard will want to fill his squad with more quality players going into next season.

All three of these players have a good shot of making the squad next season, but a lot will depend on their performances for the rest of this season, and in their retrospective international competitions in the summer.
