Chelsea has reportedly assigned a price tag to Conor Gallagher as Premier League rival Tottenham Hotspur expresses interest. Gallagher, with only 18 months remaining on his current Chelsea contract, is the subject of attention from Tottenham, which is purportedly planning to sell one of its players in January to secure funds for Gallagher’s acquisition, as per reports from The Sun.
The suggested amount for Gallagher’s transfer is reportedly £50 million, and Chelsea appears determined to hold out for this sum for the English midfielder. There is speculation that Gallagher might leave Chelsea in the upcoming January transfer window.
In the meantime, Chelsea is actively seeking to generate funds for the acquisition of a striker, aiming to maintain a balanced squad under the management of Mauricio Pochettino. This initiative follows significant expenditures exceeding £1 billion since Todd Boehly’s takeover last year.
