Alfie Gilchrist, a defender who plays as a full-back, on Chelsea’s roster is set to leave the club permanently this summer. The 21-year-old English player has been on loan at Sheffield United, a Championship team, since August 2024, and remained there until June 2025, according to a recent update. Gilchrist’s style of play is not explicitly known, but his loan spell at Sheffield United showcased his skills. With his Chelsea contract expiring, several Championship clubs are showing strong interest in signing him. The exact details of the potential transfer, including the destination club, are still being considered, with multiple options on the table. Gilchrist signed a new contract with Chelsea in April 2024, committing his future to the club until 2026, but it appears that plan has changed.
