Chelsea midfielder Conor Gallagher has been linked with a move away from the club in recent months.
The 24-year-old midfielder will be out of contract next summer and Chelsea have not been able to agree on a contract extension with him yet. It will be interesting to see if the Blues manage to cash in on him before the window closes.
According to 90 Min, Tottenham Hotspur and Aston Villa are keen on signing the central midfielder this summer, but they will have to pay a substantial amount of money for him. The report states that Chelsea are holding out for £55 million. Although Gallagher is a reliable performer in the Premier League and he is a quality player with immense potential, his contract situation could make it difficult to fetch that kind of money for the player.
Tottenham and Aston Villa will hope to sign him for a more reasonable price. It will be interesting to see how the situation develops.
Tottenham and Aston Villa could use Conor Gallagher
Tottenham need more quality and depth in the central midfield and the 24-year-old England international seems like the ideal fit. He will add defensive cover, work rate, goals, and creativity to the side. Gallagher has proven himself in English football and he could make an instant impact at Tottenham. He could be the ideal replacement for Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg who is expected to leave.
The Chelsea star picked up seven goals and nine assists in all competitions last season.
Meanwhile, Aston Villa will be competing in the UEFA Champions League next season and they need quality additions. The Chelsea midfielder would certainly help them improve.
The reported £55 million valuation from Chelsea seems quite steep for a player who is in the final year of his contract. It remains to be seen how the situation develops in the coming weeks. Chelsea might have to lower their asking price in order to get a deal done.
