Chelsea are unsure about Conor Gallagher’s future at the club, as the midfielder has yet to be offered a new deal.
According to HITC, there are growing concerns about Conor Gallagher’s future at the club as Chelsea have yet to offer the 24-year-old Tottenham target a new deal. The midfielder has been one of their top performers this season, yet there are chances they will sell him for profit to balance FFP obligations.
Major doubts over Conor Gallagher’s Chelsea future
Right now, many teams would readily take Conor Gallagher out of Chelsea should they be given a chance. That opportunity might arrive in the summer when the club starts considering its financial obligations and decides on selling some of its homegrown stars, significantly affecting the 24-year-old Tottenham target’s future.
Gallagher has been one of Chelsea’s top performers, but there are growing concerns about his long-term future. The midfielder is reportedly waiting for the club to offer him a new deal, which has not been forthcoming so far, making the fans think that the Blues are unsure about keeping him at Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea has FFP and PSR obligations to meet, which could see them sell homegrown stars. Gallagher remains a high-value player, and selling him would make them a total profit, considering the club developed him through its Cobham Academy.
With reports stating that Chelsea must raise significant profits before July 1, the Blues could sell Gallagher, with a £40 million price tag mooted in media reports. Hence, there’s a big chance for the 24-year-old to depart, as the club also does not allow players to run down their deals.
Tottenham, a significant contender for Gallagher
Additionally, Gallagher will only stay at the club if they offer him a new deal, and in the absence of one, he will likely leave. A few suitors are waiting in line for the midfielder, with Tottenham eager to tie him up early in the window.
Spurs have been chasing the midfielder for quite some time now, and the summer window will offer them a big chance. However, given Gallagher’s allegiance with Chelsea and probably that of his family, signing for Spurs will still be seen as an indifferent decision, which could even scupper the move altogether.
