It was confirmed earlier today that Chelsea have excised an option to extend Billy Gilmour’s contract until 2024.
The midfielder, who spent this past season on loan at Norwich City, will remain at the Bridge for at least two more years. Gilmour has 22 Chelsea appearances to his name and turned 21 on Saturday.
Gilmour joined Chelsea in the summer of 2017 from Rangers in his native Scotland. After two successful years in the Academy, including trophies and a first professional contract, he became a permanent fixture in Frank Lampard’s squad during the 2019/20 campaign.
He made his Blues debut in a home game against Sheffield United in August 2019, not long after his 18th birthday, and then signed a new four-year deal at Stamford Bridge.
