Chelsea star Billy Gilmour was reported to be in the process of joining Norwich City on a season-long loan next week, but nothing concrete has surfaced yet regarding a move for the highly rated young midfielder, according to football.london.

The 20-year-old has been linked with a loan move away from Stamford Bridge this summer, with a number of Premier League clubs all claimed to be keen to secure his services for the season ahead.

Newly promoted side Norwich City had appeared to be winning the race for the impressive young Scot, with the Canaries said to be both Chelsea and Thomas Tuchel’s favoured option for the youngster.

The Scotland international was claimed to be likely to complete a season-long loan move to Carrow Road next week, with Norwich confident of getting the deal across the line.

However, claims linking Gilmour with an imminent move to Daniel Farke’s side are wide of the mark as nothing concrete has emerged yet regarding a move for the player.

While Norwich being close to signing the Scot on loan appear to be far from true, those associated with Chelsea are not surprised that he is heavily being linked with a loan move.

It appears that Chelsea boss Tuchel is yet to make a final decision regarding the former Rangers youth star’s immediate future.
