However, the academy prospect is realistic and knows that new boss Enzo Maresca may have other plans.
Speaking on the JustJoe Football Show, journalist Ben Jacobs said: "Leeds, Preston and Blackburn are the three clubs who have made a formative approach so far.
“To all intents and purposes, Gilchrist would be open to a Leeds move.
“He’s obviously got great respect, though I know Chelsea and Leeds have their own rivalry. Nonetheless, he would go there, and he would be very willing to fight and try to get promoted.”
