Revealed: What does Conor Gallagher want to do amidst Tottenham and Aston Villa interest?
According to BirminghamLive, both Aston Villa and Tottenham Hotspurs are interested in securing the signature of Conor Gallagher this summer. However, the Chelsea midfielder is purportedly prepared to wait and evaluate his choices.
Gallagher’s current contract with Chelsea is set to conclude at the end of the upcoming season. Should negotiations for a new contract not materialize within the next six months, he could potentially depart from Chelsea as a free agent a year from now.
That depends on if he continues at Stamford Bridge beyond the summer transfer window, Atletico Madrid is also vying for his signature. Villa manager Unai Emery holds a strong admiration for Gallagher, making him the club’s top priority for this summer.
According to The Guardian, Conor Gallagher is willing to exercise patience and weigh his options before deciding on a potential departure from Chelsea this summer. The report indicates that Gallagher is prepared to stay at his childhood club if his desires for a transfer elsewhere are not fulfilled.
The 24-year-old enjoyed a stellar season for the Blues under Mauricio Pochettino, following his breakthrough the previous season while on loan at Crystal Palace. He featured in all but one Premier League match throughout 2023/24, with the absence being due to suspension.
More Tottenham news
The player looks to be more interested in staying on at Stamford Bridge even though the owners seem to be looking to move him on in the transfer window in order to get a decent transfer fee before his contract expires next year and the player is available on a free transfer. Tottenham Hotspurs should consider making a bid this year instead of waiting for the player’s contract to expire. If the time comes and next year Chelsea offers to extend his contract, Tottenham will have no chance to secure the player’s services.
