We are slowly moving towards a permanent transfer of Conor Gallagher from Chelsea. In the sights of Atlético de Madrid for several weeks, the midfielder knows he is being courted and is taking advantage of this to force his departure. He has refused the last two renewal proposals from the Blues, while he is tied to his training club until 2025. In other words, he leaves this summer, or free in a year.
Of course, the English club is looking to get a check back. According to information from The Telegraphan agreement has been sealed with the Colchoneros for a transfer of €40 million. The Madrilenians must now find common ground with the man who sometimes wore the captain’s armband with Mauricio Pochettino. In total, Gallagher (24 years old) has played 95 games with Chelsea for 10 goals and 10 assists.
