Conor Gallagher ‘is attracting interest from Tottenham’ as Ange Postecoglou looks to reshape his midfield… with the Chelsea star ‘expected to leave Stamford Bridge this summer’
Conor Gallagher could be set for a cross-town switch from Chelsea to Tottenham this summer as the Blues look to trim their bloated squad, according to reports.
The English midfielder struggled for minutes last season at Chelsea, despite impressing on loan at Crystal Palace the season before under Patrick Vieira.
Frank Lampard’s interim tenure brought an improved position in the squad, as he started eight of the last nine games in the Blues’ disappointing Premier League campaign, scoring twice, but his time at Stamford Bridge could now be up.
Reports surfaced that Ange Postecoglou’s arrival could leave Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg’s future under a cloud of uncertainty, which could pave the way for an overhaul in the middle of the park.
Football London have reported that Spurs are keen on Gallagher, but they could find competition in Newcastle, who have long been linked with the English star.
