Declan Rice’s resignation was predicted, and it was thought to be the only high-profile departure at the time.This implies there is money to be spent, and Gallagher can be signed because he will depart if he is promised playing time elsewhere.While he may wish to stay and impress Mauricio Pochettino, Gallagher’s game time will be drastically reduced if the Blues sign Tyler Adams and Moises Caicedo.If he wants to be a regular for England, he’ll have to play more often, which might lead to his departing on loan.

David Moyes would benefit from a midfield pivot of Gallagher and Alvarez, with Lucas Paqueta playing farther forward.It remains to be seen whether the advanced conversations result in another offer.In other West Ham news, Tim Steidten’s status at the London Stadium has been updated amid a £3.5 billion discovery about Daniel Kretinsky.
