Tottenham Hotspur aim to conclude speedy deal for Conor Gallagher
Tottenham Hotspur have been associated with a possible move for Chelsea midfielder Conor Gallagher for some time now. The club is hoping to strike a quick deal with the city rivals, aiding their financial vows with the PSR compliances.
Daniel Levy is looking to take advantage of the opportunity and try to sign the 24-year-old this summer. Adding his energy to Ange Postecoglou’s system could be a win-win for both parties.
Spurs have made considerable progress under the tutelage of Ange Postecoglou, and this summer is about bringing in the right players who can fit into the Australian gaffer’s style of play while raising the ceiling of the squad.
The club is looking to conclude business as early as possible in the off-season, and Ange Postecoglou sees the former Crystal Palace star as an ideal fit for his style, per the Sun.
Will Gallagher Extend at Chelsea or Move to Spurs?
Gallagher will only have a year left on his contract at Stamford Bridge, which serves as another reason for the Blues to consider his sale rather than risking losing him on a free transfer next summer.
Although there remains a chance that he extends his stay at Chelsea, the likelihood points to a possible exit.
The West Londoners are said to be looking for at least £40 million for Conor Gallagher. That’s especially true given that they sold Mason Mount to Manchester United for £55 million with a year left on his contract last summer, while Tottenham signed Maddison, who also had a year left on his contract with Leicester City, for a £40 million fee.

Conor has been in excellent form this season and has been one of the few positives at the Bridge. Tottenham will be getting someone who fits into that number 8 role while giving attacking returns and running a million miles each game.
It is to be seen where the talks go as he heads into the summer, though it is positive intent from Spurs to go and sign him as early as they can.
