Chelsea great John Terry wants to see Conor Gallagher stay next season.
The midfielder is being linked with Newcastle and Tottenham this summer.
He told Simon Jordan's podcast: I like Conor.
"I've known him since he was a young kid. Seeing him now as a Chelsea fan, I look and go, 'if there's one player I want to represent and wear the armband, it's him for me.
I think he's a very good player. They're still nurturing, if I'm a fan and watching right now, I want a player who gives absolutely everything, and Conor does that. He has the quality as well, but he's the one pushing and driving this team in a different way to how I would have as captain."
