Chelsea are poised to reject Atletico Madrid’s bid for England midfielder Conor Gallagher. The Spanish giants have shown interest in the 24-year-old, currently on international duty at Euro 2024, but are struggling to meet Chelsea’s £50 million valuation for the academy graduate. Gallagher, with one year left on his contract, is a key player Chelsea are willing to listen to offers for.

Atletico Madrid’s proposed loan bid is also likely to be dismissed, as Chelsea seeks permanent offers to balance their books during the summer transfer window. Gallagher has attracted interest from Premier League clubs including Tottenham, Aston Villa, Newcastle, West Ham, and Everton. Gallagher, who captained Chelsea several times last season, is aware of his value as he approaches free agency under the Bosman ruling.

New Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca is prepared for increasing interest in Gallagher and is considering Leicester City’s Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, 25, as a potential replacement. Despite interest from Liverpool, Leicester intends to hold firm on their £40 million valuation for Dewsbury-Hall.
