Tottenham Hotspur have suffered a blow in their pursuit of Chelsea midfield star Conor Gallagher.
Tottenham Hotspur have a long-standing interest in securing Conor Gallagher’s services. They have been closely monitoring him for a while now and are gearing up to make a move in the upcoming transfer window.
According to a report from Football Insider, The North London club have suffered a huge blow in their pursuit of Gallagher’s signature as the Chelsea midfielder is keen on extending his stay at his boyhood club.
The 24-year-old’s future has been the talk of the town for a while now. With his contract running out in the summer of 2025, the Blues are considering parting ways with him as they do not want to risk losing out on him for free.
Tottenham have been monitoring him for a while now. They want more quality in the centre of the park and they feel Gallagher would be an ideal fit in Ange Postecoglou’s system.
With Chelsea not in the best of financial situations and Gallagher’s contract running out, Spurs were ready to make the most of the situation. Unfortunately, the North London club have suffered a blow in their pursuit and it remains to be seen whether they decide to pursue other targets.
Gallagher is still hoping to renew his deal at Chelsea even though talks over a new deal have been on hold for a while now. While the Blues need to raise funds, they won’t force the England international to leave the club against his will.
It will be interesting to see how the situation develops over the next few weeks.
