Leeds, Everton and Palace track £50m Chelsea ace ahead of January loan move

Leeds United, Everton, and Crystal Palace are reportedly tracking Chelsea winger Jamie Gittens ahead of the January transfer window. Chelsea are open to sanctioning a loan move for the 22-year-old, who has struggled for playing time and fitness since his £50 million transfer from Borussia Dortmund in 2025. The Blues still view Gittens as part of their long-term plans and hope regular minutes elsewhere will help him regain his form.

Potential moves could face obstacles, as Everton's pursuit may depend on Jack Grealish's future under manager David Moyes, while Crystal Palace's existing loan arrangements could complicate a deal. Leeds could offer regular playing time, though continental clubs including Roma, RB Leipzig, and Eintracht Frankfurt are also monitoring the situation.
