Tottenham Hotspur is reportedly considering a move for Chelsea midfielder Conor Gallagher in the current transfer window.
While an official bid is yet to be submitted, sources from Football Insider suggest that Tottenham is in the process of preparing a last-minute offer. The valuation for Gallagher stands at £80 million according to Chelsea, and discussions have been initiated between the two clubs.
At 23 years old, Gallagher has played a pivotal role under Mauricio Pochettino, showcasing his versatility in providing defensive cover, energy, and creativity to Ange Postecoglou’s midfield. Talks between Tottenham and Chelsea have already taken place regarding a potential transfer this month.
Despite Chelsea facing financial constraints due to recent spending sprees and financial fair play regulations, the Blues are open to selling Gallagher to address their financial balance and make room for new signings.
This strategic move allows Chelsea to navigate the challenges posed by financial restrictions while providing Tottenham with the opportunity to secure a promising player who could contribute significantly to their midfield.
