Atletico Madrid midfielder Conor Gallagher is understood to be available and attracting interest from things like Manchester United ahead of tomorrow’s transfer deadline.
Properly placed sources of the industry are notified Catch off side Its Man Utd, Tottenham, Newcastle and Crystal Palace are keen on Gallagher as they are given a asking price of £45 million.
England International only joined Atletico from Chelsea a year ago, but it appears he is now able to return to the Premier League.
United are interested in Adam Wharton after missing out on Carlos Valleva, but one source revealed that they are “monitoring” Gallagher’s situation.
Connor Gallagher Transfer Tottenham Lead Race
However, multiple sources we spoke to seemed to have revealed that Tottenham is currently leading the Gallagher race.
He said the former Chelsea man’s bid is imminent, saying, “The club considers Gallagher the perfect fit… The Spurs are preparing bids in the £35 million to £400,000 region.”
This is a bit inferior to the price asked for Atletico’s Gallagher, so it’s still not clear whether we’ll be able to reach a compromise.
If not, it looks unity and ready for Newcastle to strike, but Crystal Palace is also keen to return the players they once lend.
Where is Connor Gallagher next?
It’s not so surprising that Gallagher is so interested in him this summer, as he was impressed during his time at Chelsea and during his singles season on loan at Palace.
The 25-year-old may be ideal to help the palace replace Ebebeki Eze, but he probably appears to be a bit out of their price range.
Spurs is a strong summer and fans are excited about the recent acquisition of Xavi Simons, but this will sign another statement.
But United definitely needs Gallagher the most, but it remains to be seen whether it will be hampered by the lack of European football.
