Fabrizio Romano says Spurs boss Ange Postecoglou ‘loves’ £40m midfield target

Tottenham Hotspur have enjoyed a fairly fruitful season for the most part, certainly compared to last year.

In 2022/23, a manager-less Spurs outfit l🥃imped to an eighth-placed fi♈nish in the Premier League.

This term, under🌜 Ange Postecoglou, Tottenham were early pace-setters at the top of the♚ table and remain in top-four contention.

Even if Spurs don’t finish in th𝓰e Champions League places, there’s still a lot to work with, and the club hierarchy will be eager to bring in more top additions.

One pl🔜ayer Tottenham have heavily been linked with is Chelsea’s Conor Gallagher, whose future at the west London club remains uncertain.

And Fabrizio Romano h🃏as provided ꦰan update on the state of play.

recently reported that Spurs are set to go back in for the England international, for a fee said to be ♛around £40million.

Tottenham reportedly bid for Gallagher last summer on deadline day, while there was also a strong interest i𝔍n January.

What has Fabrizio Romano said about Tottenham and Conor Gallagher?

Now, Romano has claimed that Gallagher is “super𒁏-appreciated” by Spurs, and that Postecoglou “loves” him and w♎ants him at N17.

“Conor Gallagher remains on Tottenham’s shortlist,” the transfer insider wrote on . “He’s 🍸a super-appreciated player at Spurs.

“He’s been on Ange Postecoglou’s list since day one ꦰand has always been a player he loves. So, I think Tottenham will be there if Chelsea decide to sell the player in the summer transfer window.

“♓But for sure, Gallagher remains a player that is appreciated by Tottenham, and they’re waiting for Chelsea’s final decision on that one.”

Although Gallagher to Tottenham seems to be a rumour that has split the Spurs fanbase, there’s no denying he is top-end Premie🔴r League quality and would be a good shout for the Lilywhites.

At just 24 years of age, he’s already captained Chelsea and is featuring often for England. H🌊e’s still nowhere near his prime💝 and Postecoglou would no doubt take him to the next level.
