There are two major clubs, including Tottenham Hotspur, in contention to recruit Chelsea’s midfielder, Conor Gallagher, this summer.
The Evening Standard reports that Gallagher is going to be released from Stamford Bridge.
After already securing James Maddison from Leicester City, Tottenham is preparing to strengthen their midfield even further this summer.
There are speculations surrounding Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg’s transfer to Atletico Madrid, and Conor Gallagher is seen as a potential suitable substitute for him.
As per The Daily Mail, Ange Postecoglou is a big fan of Gallagher, a 23-year-old midfielder, considering him an ideal match for his team.
Despite interest from Tottenham, journalist Dean Jones indicates Gallagher desires to remain and compete for a spot at Chelsea.
However, Chelsea seems to have advised Gallagher to explore opportunities outside the club this summer.
Tottenham’s Lead in Pursuit of Gallagher
The Evening Standard indicates that Gallagher is ready to leave Chelsea following their decision to let him go.
At present, the keenest contenders to sign him are Tottenham and West Ham.
After letting go of Declan Rice to Arsenal, West Ham aims to cultivate interest in the English talent.
Tottenham, on the other hand, sees Gallagher as a prospective substitute for Hojbjerg, aiming to expand their home-based player pool.
Under the guidance of Mauricio Pochettino, Gallagher has delivered impressive pre-season performances, making it surprising to see him consider leaving Chelsea.
Already having lost key midfielders like N’Golo Kante, Mateo Kovacic, and Mason Mount this summer, Chelsea faces a midfield gap.
Gallagher’s leaving will be an excellent asset for Postecoglou’s team.
Showing his capability of matching Premier League standards with an impressive loan stint at Crystal Palace, the ‘remarkable’ midfielder will be a welcomed addition.
His impressive off-the-ball efforts also appeal to Postecoglou.
