Conor Gallagher would be a better match for Spurs than for Chelsea, according to Pat Nevin, even though it would hurt to see the midfielder wearing a Tottenham shirt.
As the summer transfer window approaches, rumours that Gallagher is moving to Tottenham across London get stronger.
The Sun reported last week that Spurs intend to pursue the midfield player very early in the transfer season and that they are aware of Chelsea’s requirement to raise money before the end of June.
The source also stated that the Lilywhites intend to complete the England international before the preseason kicks off.
HITC disclosed a few days ago that Gallagher and his representatives now acknowledge that their time at Stamford Bridge is likely to come to an end this summer.
Although Mauricio Pochetitno would like to keep the 23-year-old at his boyhood club, the source stated that the player’s entourage is aware that a sale is possible due to the club’s financial problems and their client’s contract status.

Could Conor Gallagher bridge the Chelsea-Spurs gap?
Nevin acknowledged that Pochettino might not have control over Gallagher’s circumstances, but he also hinted that the midfield player would flourish under Ange Postecoglou.
“In an ideal world where finances are all balanced, Chelsea would absolutely not be looking to sell Conor Gallagher,” the commentator said to Grosvenor Sport (via The Metro). It is unfathomable; I cannot imagine it. Just like the time Mason Mount vanished. However, you must act if your financial situation dictates that you must.
Many Chelsea supporters may find it unbelievably upsetting because, as someone recently told me, it’s like selling the family silver. Although it’s a little unsettling, Chelsea has begun selling off portions of the stadium and hotels. In reality, though, the accountants are in charge.
It wouldn’t surprise us in the slightest if he chose to join with someone like Conor Gallagher of Spurs; Chelsea supporters would undoubtedly suffer greatly from it. However, given his style of play, I believe he would be a better fit for Spurs as a player.
Because we don’t know who is ultimately making the decisions, the transfer situation involving Chelsea is really somewhat tricky. If it comes down to the manager then he will make changes and will want to get rid of a number of players and bring in more experience in certain areas.
“That’s a kind of slight delicacy of it, but I have no doubt that he may not be the one making any decisions, which is quite common in the modern game.”
Spurs Online Views
We are aware that Tottenham has been preparing a move for Gallagher since last summer, and that Postecolgou has had his eye on the midfield player for a considerable amount of time.
The Lilywhites will undoubtedly make an offer for the 23-year-old this summer, although it’s possible that Chelsea would rather sell the player to a team other than Spurs.
