Conor Gallagher, a Chelsea midfielder, is said to be interested in joining Ange Postecoglou’s Tottenham Hotspur during the summer transfer window.
Chelsea are prepared to trade Conor Gallagher for £50 million, according to writer Graeme Bailey on the Talking Transfers Podcast, with Tottenham Hotspur keen in the midfielder.
West Ham United have been connected with the 23-year-old as well.
Bailey has stated that, while Gallagher is not actively seeking to leave Chelsea, he would prefer a transfer to Tottenham if forced to go.
Tottenham, according to the source, does not want to spend £50 million to London and Premier League rivals Chelsea for the teenager.
According to TBR, Bailey stated concerning Gallagher, “Chelsea are, I wouldn’t say open to it, but if someone is willing to pay £50m for Conor Gallagher, they’re willing to sell.”
“That’s what we’re hearing. I don’t think Gallagher is desperate to go at the moment, but with the teams linked, he probably prefers Tottenham, from what we’re hearing, but Tottenham aren’t willing to spend £50 million for Conor Gallagher, and nobody is.”
Chelsea should keep Conor Gallagher.
Chelsea midfielder Conor Gallagher, in our opinion, should continue at the club for at least another season and work with Mauricio Pochettino.
We know from Pochettino’s stint as the head coach of Tottenham Hotspur that he works miracles with young and bright players and helps them improve.
Gallagher came through the Chelsea youth and might establish himself as a vital component in the first team under Pochettino.
The 23-year-old, who was praised as “extraordinary and outstanding” by former Chelsea head coach Thomas Tuchel on the club’s official website in April 2022 while on loan at Crystal Palace, can play center midfield, further forward, or wide.
The midfielder has made 99 Premier League outings in his career.
In those games, Gallagher has 13 goals and six assists.
