Report: Postecoglou ‘would love’ to sign 24-year-old Spurs are still keeping an eye on

Football Insider claim that Tottenham Hotspur are continuing to keep an eye on Conor Gallagher but Atletico Madrid remain the favourites to get a deal for the midfielder over the line before the transfer deadline.

Tottenham like Conor Gallagher

Spurs have made some astute signings so far this summer but it has been widely reported that the Lilywhites still want to bring an all-action midfielder through the door before the window shuts (GiveMeSport).

Postecoglou currently has the likes of Rodrigo Bentancur, Yves Bissouma, Pape Matar Sarr, Archie Gray, Lucas Bergvall and James Maddison to choose from in midfield.

Gallagher’s proposed move to Atletico hit a roadblock last week, with the player now back in London and that has generated rumours that Tottenham could re-ignite their pursuit of the 24-year-old (ESPN).

Gallagher signing is unlikely for Spurs

Football Insider have now also reported that Spurs are continuing to keep tabs on Gallagher’s situation as we enter the dying stages of the transfer window.

In fact, they claim that Ange Postecoglou ‘would love’ to bring the England international through the door before the end of the month.

However, the publication points out that the chances of Tottenham and Chelsea agreeing on a deal for Gallagher are slim, with Atletico still favourites to land the midfielder once they offload Joao Felix.

I doubt Postecoglou would be as keen on Gallagher as he was earlier this summer. We know that the Australian only wants players who are really keen to come to Tottenham.

The fact that the midfielder chose Atletico over Spurs might have convinced the 58-year-old to look at other alternatives instead.
