Tottenham Hotspur are likely to be busy on the transfer front in the coming weeks as they look to bolster their ranks.

Spurs have impro෴ved since last season and﷽ their future looks bright with Ange Postecoglou at the helm.

Tottenham target Conor Gallagher now wanted by Atletico Madrid

The player in question is Chelsea’s Conor Gallagher. Spurs have been linked with the Blues ace for months now, but in recent days, speculation has eme꧂rged 𒀰linking him to other clubs.

For instance, Arsenal are said to have entered the race for Gallagher, along with Atletico Madrid.

Sky Sports journalist Dharmesh Sheth h✅as now spoken about Los Colchoneros entering the race for the reported Tottenham target.

“Atletico Madrid the latest club ꦜto express an interest in Chelsea midfielder Cono🃏r Gallagher,” he said on .

“They are one of a number of clubs in Europe and thꦕe Premier League keen on signing Galla🦩gher.”

Shet🅷h also explained how Gallagher’s suitors would have to wait until after Euro 2024 for the player to decid🐽e on his future.

“Gallagher has a year left on his contract and h🦹e will decide on his 🐓future after the Euros,” he continued.

“Gꦿallagher wants to assess all his options but his only focus for now is on England.”

Signing Gallagher will not be easy for Tottenham

A move for Gallagher this summer could see Tottenham needing to par🐼t with around £50million this summer.

His future remains uncerta♚in amid Chelsea’s apparent need to sell homegrown players for PSR reaso💛ns, but Spurs will be up against several big suitors for his signature.

There’s also a good chance that any deal for Gallagher could drag on into the summer, with the player seemingly keen to stay put at Stamford Bridge🎃.

With that in mind, signing Galla🔯gher may not be all ꦜthat easy for Spurs amid hurdles with regards to the player’s stance and also the strong competition.
