Atletico Madrid has a big offer on the table for Gallagher

Conor Gallagher could be living his last days as a player of Atlético de Madrid. The English midfielder, who arrived last summer from Chelsea for 42 million euros, is one of the players the red and white club would be willing to consider offers for in this summer transfer window. Despite his dedication and good adaptation to the group, he never managed to establish himself as an undisputed starter for Diego Simeone, often playing out of his natural position on the left wing.

Atlético is not ruling out Gallagher's departure

According to MundoDeportivo, Newcastle United has set their sights on him. Eddie Howe, the manager of the Magpies, sees Gallagher as an ideal piece to strengthen their midfield for a demanding season, with the Champions League in sight. The British player is highly rated for his intensity, physical prowess, and ability to threaten the opposing area, traits that align perfectly with the ambitious project being developed at St. James’ Park.

Atlético is open to options, but any attempt to sign the English international should approach the 42 million spent a year ago. Gallagher, on the other hand, feels comfortable in Madrid, although he is aware that his role could diminish further with new additions. In a World Cup year, the player is seriously considering a change of scenery if he won't have a significant role. The match on August 9 against Newcastle could be his last appearance as a mattress maker.
