Atlético de Madrid has rejected a loan offer from Manchester United for Conor Gallagher in the final hours of the Premier League transfer window, as reported by Ben Jacobs.

The colchonero club is not considering letting go of the player on loan and will only entertain offers for a permanent sale that would bring in a significant income.

The signing of Conor Gallagher by Atlético de Madrid

Gallagher was acquired by Atlético de Madrid in 2024 for a sum close to 42 million euros. However, his performance in the Spanish capital has not met expectations. So far this LaLiga season, the midfielder has only played 85 minutes, being a substitute in the last two matches.

His limited playing time has sparked interest in the Premier League, where up to eight teams have inquired about his availability. Among them, Everton and Crystal Palace, clubs that had previously followed him.

Atlético's stance: only permanent sale

The refusal to loan Conor Gallagher reflects the sporting and financial policy of the club. The sports management, led by Andrea Berta, believes that a temporary departure would not solve either the sporting problems or the financial issues associated with the player.

According to journalist Ben Jacobs, the Rojiblancos only view a sale that would allow them to recoup part of the initial investment as viable. Gallagher has a high salary in Madrid, further complicating the chances of a loan without a significant economic agreement.

Manchester United's interest and the English market

Manchester United sought to incorporate Gallagher as an immediate reinforcement for the midfield. Coach Rubén Amorim sees in him a profile capable of providing intensity and scoring ability, especially after the inconsistencies shown in the early season games.

In addition to United, Napoli also showed interest in another linked player, Kobbie Mainoo, but it seems the young Englishman will remain at Old Trafford. For Gallagher, however, the situation is different: his lack of continuity could pave the way for a permanent transfer in the winter.

Trained at Chelsea, Gallagher made over 90 appearances in the Premier League before moving to Atlético. His style of play, based on high pressure and arriving from the second line, fits the demands of Simeone, although he has yet to secure a spot in the starting eleven.

The Madrid club now faces the challenge of increasing the value of a player who, despite his youth and international experience, is going through a tough time. The Rojiblanco's commitment remains firm: only a permanent transfer will allow his departure.
