Gallagher to N17? Tottenham look to solve midfield woes with Chelsea star
Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with a move for Chelsea midfielder Conor Gallagher for some time, with multiple reports stating the North Londoners are making the England international their prime target this summer transfer window.
The Lilywhites will be looking to build on the progress made by Ange Postecoglou at N17, and the officials in the cubicles of White Hart Lane will be looking to ascertain that the off-season is used smartly with a keen eye on improving the roster at the Australian’s disposal. Midfield is one of the positions in which the club is looking to increase depth and quality in the upcoming summer window, as they could lose out on a couple of midfielders heading into the transfer window.
Giovani Lo Celso and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg have been linked with a move away from White Hart Lane as Spurs look to bring Conor Gallagher to the N17 this summer. He would not only increase the quality of the midfielder but also help provide depth in the position.
Tottenham, Villa, and Atletico Madrid vie for Gallagher
The Lilywhites have been tracking Gallagher for some time, with initial links to sign the 24-year-old established last summer, and the North Londoners are looking to conclude their mere interest in his services by amplifying a concrete offer this summer in a bid to lure the talented midfielder away from Stamford Bridge.
However, signing his services doesn’t come easy, as alongside Chelsea, Premier League rivals Aston Villa are also looking to snap his services this summer. While the Premier League duo compete for his signatures, La Liga giants Atlético de Madrid have also fortified interest in the England international’s signatures, per the Daily Mail.
