Could be the Biggest Deal of the Transfer Window
Ornstein has revealed in an interview with Sky Sports that there is a possibility of a shock deal developing in the final days of the transfer window. Chelsea’s third captain, Gallagher could be on his way to London rivals Spurs in the coming days. The contract situation of the English midfielder might prove to be pivotal in the potential transfer.
The Athletic’s journalist also said that the Lilywhites really like the 23-year-old. Daniel Levy’s club can spend more than what they spent for Radu Dragusin to sign Gallagher. According to the English journalist, Chelsea will “definitely consider” selling their midfield “powerhouse” if a suitable offer is received.
Spurs Can Sell Hojbjerg in Order to Raise Funds
There have been talks recently that Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg could leave the team in the ongoing transfer window. Ornstein told Sky Sports that the sale of Danish midfielder could be key for Spurs’ intentions of signing Gallagher.
Italian giants Napoli have been linked with Hojbjerg in recent days. A potential exit could raise funds for Ange Postecoglou’s side which could allow them to land the Chelsea youngster.
Gallagher will add a lot of energy to Tottenham’s midfield with his relentless and determined attitude. It could prove to be a major coup if the North Londoners manage to snatch one of the captains from their local rivals.
