Reports suggest that Chelsea is planning to initiate contract extension discussions with Conor Gallagher in the near future.
In recent reports, it has come to light that Chelsea FC is actively preparing to engage in discussions with Conor Gallagher regarding a contract extension. The talented midfielder, whose current contract with his boyhood club is set to expire in 2025, has attracted interest from other Premier League clubs, including Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham United.
Gallagher has emerged as a vital asset for Chelsea under the management of Mauricio Pochettino. In the current season, he has been a fixture in the starting lineup, featuring in eight out of nine games across all competitions. Impressively, he has been a constant presence in all seven Premier League fixtures. Moreover, Gallagher has stepped up as a captain on four occasions when Reece James and Ben Chilwell were unavailable.
To avoid a situation reminiscent of Mason Mount and Antonio Rudiger’s contract negotiations in recent years, Chelsea is keen to secure Gallagher’s future promptly. According to reports from the Daily Mail, the club is actively strategizing to commence negotiations for a new contract.
This proactive approach underlines Chelsea’s commitment to retaining key talents and ensuring stability within their squad for the foreseeable future.
