Tottenham Hotspur apparently has interest in Chelsea midfielder Conor Gallagher, but the player is set to remain with Chelsea

With the exception of his suspension in December, Gallagher has started 19 of Tottenham Hotspur’s 20 Premier League games, solidifying his position as an integral part of Mauricio Pochettino’s team.

Gallagher has worn the captain’s armband in multiple appearances for the first team, which is a mark of his standing on the team.

Speculation has circulated that the England international, who is among Pochettino’s first-choice starters, could be leaving Stamford Bridge in the near future.

Speculation has circulated that the 23-year-old could be for sale by the club’s co-owners, Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital.As a graduate of Chelsea’s youth program, Gallagher would bring in a tidy sum from any sale, which would boost the club’s Financial Fair Play standing.

Tottenham, a rival club in London, have been linked to Gallagher’s services due to the club’s willingness to listen to bids for him.

According to The Mirror, Gallagher will reportedly stay put at Chelsea during the current transfer window, despite Spurs’ interest.

Chelsea are still accepting official proposals for Gallagher, who has established his asking price at £60 million, even if a January move is highly doubtful.

An article states that a £50 million offer was discussed, but there’s no assurance that it would be sufficient to entice him away from West London.

The fact that Gallagher is now getting plenty of playing time gives him hope that he will be included to Gareth Southgate’s England starting lineup for Euro 2024, thus he is keen to remain at Stamford Bridge.

While a quick departure seems unlikely, Gallagher’s contract status casts a shadow on his long-term prospects.

No new agreement appears to be in the works, and the Englishman’s present arrangement is due to expire in June 2025.

At the conclusion of the season, Chelsea may opt to cash in if a new deal does not materialize during the next six months.
