Conor Gallagher’s transfer to Atletico Madrid is on the verge of failure.
Fabrizio Romano, an expert on the European transfer market, said in an SNS post on Tuesday (Korea time), “Chelsea asked Gallagher to come back to London. The plane was booked. Chelsea sees all transactions as separate negotiations. The same goes for the proposed João Félix negotiations.” 메이저사이트
Gallagher left Chelsea this summer and was confirmed to move to Atletico Madrid. The BBC reported on the 5th that “Chelsea midfielder Gallagher has agreed to join Atletico. Chelsea accepted an offer of 33 million pounds (about 57.7 billion won) from Atletico last week, but there were concerns about whether Gallagher would be interested in a transfer. However, Gallagher has reported to an Atletico official that he is happy to transfer.
Romano also said Gallagher will head to Atletico as he puts “HERE WE GO” on the post when a transfer is made. With Chelsea and Atletico negotiating transfer fees and Gallagher’s personal agreement finalized, Gallagher headed to Madrid, Spain. After arriving at Atletico, they conducted medical tests and signed a contract. Only final announcements were left.
However, Gallagher’s transfer was also put on alert as the negotiations for Samu Omorodion, which Chelsea was trying to acquire from Atletico, were completely nullified. Atletico tried to recruit Gallagher through the transfer fee incurred by selling Omorodion to Chelsea.
There was a physical problem in the process of Omorodion’s medical test at Chelsea, and Chelsea demanded a change in the terms of Omorodion negotiations. The transfer of Omorodion was ultimately canceled as Atlético refused to accept it.
As a result, Atletico did not earn enough money to recruit Gallagher. Then, Chelsea instructed Gallagher, who is staying in Madrid, Spain, to return to London.
Romano said Gallagher is open to joining Atletico after receiving medical tests. “It’s up to all stakeholders.” Chelsea is currently trying to recruit Felix, who is on the Atletico release list, but the first offer is believed to have been rejected by Atletico.
The recruitment of Gallagher is on the verge of collapse even after completing all procedures.
