Conor Gallagher is in talks to potentially return to the UK as negotiations continue between Chelsea and Atletico over a deal for Joao Felix.
Conor Gallagher is in discussions to potentially return to the UK on Tuesday as negotiations continue between Chelsea and Atletico Madrid over a deal for Joao Felix. Gallagher's £36m move to Atletico was agreed last Thursday but is now in jeopardy after the deal for Samu Omorodion to leave the LaLiga side for Chelsea collapsed. The Blues are trying to negotiate the signing of Felix instead but his valuation is substantially higher than the £34.5m agreed for Omorodion.
Omorodion's move fell through due to contractual issues - but did not prevent Atletico signing Manchester City forward Julian Alvarez for £82m on Monday. Omorodion scored eight goals in 35 LaLiga appearances last season while on loan at Alaves. Chelsea unveiled their 10th summer signing on Sunday in Wolves winger Pedro Neto, who has joined in a £54m deal.
