Conor Gallagher, a Chelsea midfielder, is still expected to leave the club this summer.
According to TEAMtalk, Chelsea has requested the player to drop his wage demands in order to sign a contract extension with them. The 24-year-old is wanting over £150,000 per week to sign a new contract with the club.
Chelsea are ready to cash in on him if he refuses to take a more affordable contract.
Meanwhile, Tottenham are waiting for the proper opportunity, and it remains to be seen whether they can complete the transaction. If Chelsea cannot reach an agreement on a new contract with Gallagher, the club is willing to sell the player for £50 million.
According to the source, the player is a top priority for Ange Postecoglou at the end of the season, and it will be intriguing to see how the situation plays out.
Tottenham need a hardworking centre midfielder this summer, and Gallagher would be an excellent choice. He will offer work rate, defensive cover, and pressing abilities to the side. He has established himself as a dependable centre midfielder in the Premier League, and Tottenham would do well to retain his services.
The £50 million asking price could be a problem, especially because his current deal expires in 2025. Spurs will want to sign him for a lower sum, and it remains to be seen whether Chelsea would cut their asking price.
