Chelsea midfielder Conor Gallagher, who is close to Lari, seems to have finally agreed to a move.

European football transfer market expert Fabrizio Romano reported exclusive news about Gallagher on his personal SNS on the 5th. Romano reported, "Gallagher agreed to agree to Atletico and verbally agreed to personal terms."

Gallagher played a key role in Chelsea's midfield during the last season. While working with several players including Enso Fernandez, Moises Caicedo, Romeo Rabia and Carney Chukuemeka, Gallagher has consistently been listed as a starting player. While Reece James and Ben Chilwell were absent, he often showed leadership by wearing the captain's armband. His outstanding performance in the midfield at the beginning of the season, connection and sharp shooting captured the hearts of Chelsea fans.

However, Gallagher is in the transfer market once again this summer. Unlike Mauricio Pochettino who considered Gallagher as the centerpiece, Coach Enzo Maresca was positive about Gallagher's sales. His disappointing performance at the end of this season also decreased the possibility of Gallagher staying. Chelsea considered selling some of its players to strengthen its players, and Gallagher was one of them.

Teams that showed interest immediately appeared as well. Tottenham Hotspur in the English Premier League expressed their interest first. With Yves Bissouma, Pape Sarr and Rodrigo Bentancourt, Tottenham wanted to build a solid midfield by recruiting Gallagher. As the team showed interest for about a year from last summer, it was considered a strong candidate. However, the team stalled after failing to hold detailed negotiations throughout the year.

Atletico were the most interested in this opportunity. Atletico actively sought to recruit Gallagher as they sought reinforcement of their midfield. British media outlets reported that Atletico and Chelsea are nearing an agreement by signing a transfer fee ranging from 35 million euros to 40 million euros. The transfer is up to the player's terms. Atletico want Gallagher as a priority, but timing is important. We are still working on the transfer with the players," adding that Gallagher is close to joining Atletico.

However, Gallagher's decision was the problem. If Gallagher does not agree to the transfer, Chelsea will not be able to sell it, and Atletico had to consider another player. Chelsea even decided to let Gallagher out of the first team when Gallagher's transfer did not proceed quickly, and he refused to renew his contract. Recently, there has been a prospect that Atletico may turn to a transfer with Valencia midfielder Harvey Guerra because they are tired of Gallagher's troubles. If it had turned to Guerra, Tottenham could have pursued Gallagher once again, but Gallagher agreed to transfer to Atletico with the news, and Atletico is expected to bring Gallagher without virtually signing Guerra.

Romano said, "If the official process goes on today, the transfer will be completed in earnest. It is a five-year contract. It is the biggest transfer fee in La Liga this summer, and Chelsea will receive 40 million euros," explaining the size of the transfer and the contract period.  토토사이트 추천

A midfielder that Tottenham wanted for a long time is finally about to move to the La Liga stage. It is expected that much attention will be paid to Gallagher's performance in Chelsea's Sunggol Youth, which has to adapt to the new stage again.
