Tottenham gives up recruiting Gallagher |
Posted: January 18, 2024 |
Tottenham still want Gallagher. England's "Football Insider" reported on January 17 that "Tottenham Hotspur is continuing important negotiations to recruit Chelsea midfielder Conor Gallagher." According to the media, Tottenham has not given up on recruiting Gallagher and wants to finalize the recruitment in the January transfer market. Tottenham kept an eye on Gallagher for a long time. Even after Enze Postecoglou took over, Gallagher, who showed great forward and active performance, was Tottenham's target. Gallagher's successful "step-up" this season has put obstacles in the way of recruitment. Gallagher started all 20 league games except for one game that he was suspended this season. He has established himself as a key player for Chelsea. Chelsea now has a reason to protect Gallagher, a "homely" resource from the youth team. Chelsea and Gallagher's contract expires in June 2025. Chelsea, which has used massive transfer funds under the new owner system, may offer a high-priced player to keep the rules of fair play. There is still a possibility that Gallagher will make inroads into the market. Chelsea received 55 million pounds (about 93.5 billion won) last summer when they sold Mason Mount, who had a year left on his contract, to Manchester United in the transfer market. As the remaining contract period decreases, the player's ransom also falls. Attention is focusing on whether Tottenham will succeed in recruiting Gallagher in the January transfer market.
