Chelsea considering new contract for Conor Gallagher following transfer rumors
- Chelsea is mulling over offering a new contract to Conor Gallagher amidst transfer speculations.
- Gallagher reportedly had a consistent performance during a tumultuous season for Chelsea.
- Discussions with Aston Villa hint at a potential transfer deal.
Conor Gallagher expressed sadness over Mauricio Pochettino's departure from Chelsea but is focusing on England's Euro 2024 campaign. He credits Pochettino for his development and is eager to contribute to the national team. Despite transfer rumors, Gallagher remains committed to Chelsea and is open to a contract extension. Chelsea may consider keeping him to avoid losing him on a free transfer. Talks of a swap deal with Aston Villa involving Jhon Durán have surfaced, but negotiations are likely to wait until after Euro 2024. Gallagher is prepared to wait for the right move and is not keen on a swap deal. Chelsea values him as an academy player, which could impact their decision due to profit and sustainability regulations. The club denies being pressured to make sales before the accounting deadline.
