Revealed: Expected winner named in Aston Villa & Spurs race to sign Gallagher

Atletico Madrid are growing in confidence in their bid to beat Aston Villa and Tottenham to the signing of Chelsea star Conor Gallagher, sources have told Football Insider.

Reports have suggested the 24-year-old has sounded out friends and colleagues for advice on a potential move to Spain.

And sources have told Football Insider that Chelsea are reluctantly ready to sell Gallagher with no progress made in discussions over a new contract.

The England international’s current deal is set to expire in less than 12 months and the Blues are not ready to let him leave on a free transfer in 2025.

Football Insider revealed on Saturday (27 July) Aston Villa are still interested in signing Chelsea’s Gallagher this summer.

The midfielder started 37 of a possible 38 Premier League games in the 2023-24 campaign and made 50 appearances in total, notching seven goals and nine assists.
