Everton Football Club has released an official statement confirming that they have signed two midfielders from Chelsea on loan until the end of the season. The move comes after the Toffees were forced to cut short Armando Broja’s loan spell due to the Chelsea striker’s ongoing injury issues.
According to the statement, Everton has secured the services of Conor Gallagher and Carney Chukwuemeka, both of whom will provide a significant boost to the club’s midfield options.
Gallagher, 23, has been in impressive form for Chelsea’s U23 side, scoring 5 goals and providing 3 assists in 10 appearances. He is known for his energy, vision, and passing range, and is expected to slot in seamlessly to Everton’s midfield.
Chukwuemeka, 19, is a highly-rated young midfielder who has already made his debut for Chelsea’s first team. He is a creative and dynamic player who can play in a variety of midfield roles, and is expected to bring a fresh perspective to Everton’s midfield.
The signing of Gallagher and Chukwuemeka is a significant coup for Everton, who have been struggling to find consistency in midfield this season. The two players will provide a much-needed injection of energy and creativity to the Toffees’ midfield, and will be key to the club’s hopes of climbing the Premier League table.
In a statement, Everton manager Sean Dyche said: “We are delighted to welcome Conor and Carney to the club. Both players have a lot of potential and will bring a fresh perspective to our midfield. We are looking forward to seeing them in action and are confident that they will make a significant contribution to the team.”
