Chelsea have set Conor Gallagher's asking price at £50 million, as Tottenham Hotspur are looking forward to adding reinforcements in the midfield in the January transfer window.

Before the arrival of Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou, the North London club showed interest in the English star, but due to the arrival of Mauricio Pochettino at Chelsea, no offer was accepted for Gallagher.

If Gallagher moves to Tottenham Hotspur, the Postecoglou style of play will surely suit the English star, and it will be beneficial to both parties.


With the future of Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg uncertain, Tottenham are expected to sign a midfielder in the January transfer window.

Gallagher came through Chelsea Academy, Cobhams. He enjoyed a successful loan spell at Crystal Palace before moving back to Chelsea to secure a place in the midfield.

While he was at Crystal Palace, the midfielder won the player of the year award at the club.

The 23-year-old's dynamic midfield ability had caught the attention of Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino.

Despite Chelsea's poor performances in the Premier League, the midfielder had made more than 26 more successful tackles than any other player in the league.

Pochettino gave the captain's armband to the English star ahead of Thiago Silva due to his ability to control the team effectively.

In addition, Chelsea are looking forward to raising funds to sign a new striker in the January transfer window.

Stats revealed Chelsea had missed 36 chances in the Premier League this season, more than any other football club.
