“Transfer Buzz: Premier League Clubs Engage in Secretive Negotiations for Surprise Move!”

Spurs and Ange Postecoglou want to bring Gallagher to the club, amid uncertainty over his future at Chelsea.

However, as yet, there’s been no indication Gallagher wants to leave The Bridge, while Mauricio Pochettino has also made it clear he wants his skipper around.

But speaking on the FIVE YouTube channel today, journalist Ben Jacobs has said that Chelsea will sell, if the right offer comes along.

Chelsea will listen to Tottenham offer for Conor Gallagher

Speaking about the situation surrounding Gallagher, Jacobs says that Chelsea have a price for Gallagher and will entertain bids.

“If the right number is hit, then there’s a very realistic possibility that Chelsea decide to cash in on Conor Gallagher. But, he isn’t actively for sale, so he isn’t transfer listed or being touted to clubs. But if a club comes and hits Chelsea’s valuation, then he’ll be allowed to leave. Gallagher can still say no, but Chelsea’s policy is that if there’s less than two years on the contract, they’ll consider and listen to offers.

“So because no new contract is imminent, if Spurs were to table the offer then Chelsea might accept it. But, Gallagher can also say no. In the short-term Chelsea need Gallagher, but the question is does he fit long-term, and I think Chelsea fans will be split on that. They (Spurs) tried for Conor Gallagher at the end of the last window for around £35m. They thought anything above that number was too high but Gallagher’s form has improved, so the number’s going to go up. We’ll have to wait and see if Spurs are prepared to pay that sort of money and if they are, Chelsea will listen very seriously,” Jacobs said.

Levy should push the button

If there’s ever been a right time in the Daniel Levy era at Tottenham to back the manager to the hilt, it’s now.

Under Postecoglou, Spurs are nicely positioned to make the top four this season and maybe even more.

The signings of Dragusin and Werner are good ones for Spurs, building on those they brought in during the summer window.

But landing Gallagher would feel a real statement. And with Ange in charge, you get the feeling he’d be able to convince the England man to make the move.

Levy, then, needs to push the go button on this while the chance is there.
