Tottenham should hijack deal for Ange Postecoglou’s dream summer signing after last minute twist from Fabrizio Romano

Tottenham Hotspur made their statement signing of the summer over the weekend with the capture of Dominic Solanke.

Ange Postecoglou๊‘s side had made a steady start to this summer’s transfer market with the addition of Archie Gray as well as Timo Werner and Yang Min-hyeok.

However, Tottenham🐭 were in desperate need of signing a new striker following the injury issues carried by Richarlison last season.

🦂Having brought in that big money striker now, Spurs will be looking at the other areas they can add to over the remaining weeks.

ꦕAnd there could well be an opportunity emerging in the window this summer after an intriguing development has now surfaced.

Tottenham may well be monitoring midfielder’s situation

♏One midfielder has already been brought in to Tottenham this summer in the form of the youngster, Gray.

꧋But Lucas Bergvall has also finally arrived to the club following his signing back in the January market.

𓄧Postecoglou’s midfield options are now looking much healthier going into the new campaign with Rodrigo Bentancur also now back from his extended break.

✤However, there is one player who is believed to have been of real interest to the Australian manager but looked set to escape his grasp.

𒅌Conor Gallagher is a player who Tottenham have targeted this summer🧔 as a potential option to really bolster their midfield.

🗹But the Chelsea man looked set to join Atletico Madrid over the last week having travelled to the Spanish capital to undergo his medical.

🦹Fabrizio Romano has now claimed the England midfielder has now been asked to return to London with the deal stalling.

⛄Having spent five days over in Madrid, Gallagher’s deal now hangs in the balance with Chelsea and Atletico working on the midfielder’s future.

Conor Gallagher is Ange Postecoglou’s dream Tottenham signing

🌌This major hurdle in the negotiations between Chelsea and the La Liga giants could now open the door to a potential return for Spurs.

After all, 𓆉Gallagher is said to be Postecoglou’s dream signing this summer as Spurs have looked to improve their midfield.

🎶But this could now provide Tottenham with the perfect opportunity to make their move if a move to Atletico is hitting the rocks.

💮Gallagher was recently banished from Chelsea first team training🐼 as his contract situation rumbled on in the background.

☂The midfielder only has one year left on his deal and if a move to Atletico does collapse, it could be a long way back between the two parties given what has gone on ahead of the proposed move to Atletico.

♍With that in mind, Spurs could now potentially jump in and provide Gallagher with a move which would still offer him European football as well as not needing to relocate.
