Pundit confirms Tottenham still want to sign £36m midfielder
By Manuel Meza
Tottenham Hotspur continues to be linked with a move for Conor Gallagher. The Chelsea midfielder, valued at £36 million, remains a target for Spurs, who have been monitoring his situation closely since last year.
Gallagher, who has been on Tottenham’s radar for some time, recently found himself in the midst of a transfer saga involving Atletico Madrid.
The England international was engaged in negotiations with the La Liga club, aiming for a move that could offer him a fresh start. However, talks between Chelsea and Atletico Madrid faced significant hurdles, forcing Gallagher to cut short his stay in Madrid and return to London.
According to the latest updates from Football Insider, Tottenham are keeping a keen eye on Gallagher’s evolving situation. The chaos surrounding his potential transfer to Atletico Madrid has prompted Spurs to reassess their options and potentially make a move.
In the latest episode of Football Insider’s Inside Track podcast, senior correspondent Pete O’Rourke revealed that Tottenham’s manager is highly interested in bringing Gallagher to North London.

Ange Postecoglou reportedly “would love” to sign the talented central midfielder, emphasizing the importance of strengthening this position within the squad.
Spurs have been keen on bolstering their midfield options as they prepare for the upcoming Premier League season. Gallagher fits the profile of the player Tottenham are looking to add to their roster.
However, despite Tottenham’s interest, the likelihood of a deal between Chelsea and Spurs seems slim. Chelsea remains optimistic about finalizing a transfer with Atletico Madrid, particularly after completing the transfer of Joao Felix.
The Blues are confident that once this deal is completed, they will be able to finalize Gallagher’s move to Atletico, thus reducing the chances of a transfer to Tottenham.
While Gallagher’s potential move to Atletico Madrid has encountered setbacks, Spurs are evaluating whether to pursue the midfielder. It’s still unclear if Tottenham will go all in for Gallagher or look at other options.
