Per Fabrizio Romano, the academy product is set to make a loan move to Sheffield United.
He was not part of the club’s preseason tour of the United States for this reason.
Gilchrist is said to be one who Chelsea want to integrate into the first team in the coming years.
However, they also believe that he needs more game time at senior level to reach his potential.
