Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino is at loggerheads with the club.
‘Despite Pochettino’s wishes, Chelsea are still keen to sell key player Connor Gallagher,’ British media outlet TeamTalk reported on Friday. Gallagher remains one of Tottenham’s top targets this season,” the report said.
Born in 2000, Gallagher is a Chelsea homegrown talent. He came through the Chelsea youth ranks and spent time on loan at West Bromwich Albion and Crystal Palace. He is now an integral part of the team. In the 2023-2024 English Premier League (EPL) season, he scored five goals in 35 appearances. This season, he has seven goals and nine assists in 48 official games. He also leads the team as de facto captain.
According to TeamTalk, “Gallagher is a very important player for Chelsea. He’s also attracting interest from Tottenham manager Enze Postecoglou. Spurs made an enquiry about Gallagher in January. Chelsea could sell some players this summer to comply with EPL sustainability rules. 카지노사이트 Chelsea are ready to sell Gallagher if they fail to re-sign him. They are hoping to get £50 million for Gallagher. Tottenham are expected to make an offer in the coming weeks. Tottenham believe they can get him for as little as £35 million, given Chelsea’s interest. Pochettino is unhappy with the club”s decision. However, the feud only adds to the uncertainty over Pochettino’s future.
Chelsea are seventh in the table with 16 wins, nine draws and 11 losses (57 points) in 36 league games this season. The Blues have back-to-back games against Brighton (Nov. 16) and Bournemouth (Nov. 20).
‘Chelsea will make a decision on Pochettino soon,’ says TeamTalk. Tottenham are the favorites to sell Gallagher.
