chelsea are hilarious. honestly wouldn’t be surprised if they finished in the bottom half this year

[todd]

This is literally the Mason Mount situation all over again. A young midfielder brought up through the academy that has played massive minutes is getting blatantly disrespected in negotiations.

[TheAthleticFC]

🚨 Gallagher is now set for a medical at Atletico Madrid after Chelsea agreed a £34.5million fee for striker Samu Omorodion - head to The Athletic for more

[JayShah]

he’s a very solid player, would be a stupid loss

[sld]

He's the perfect Diego Simeone player Fit hard working and technically limited

[yayomax]

Chelsea definitely need someone like him especially with a possible race war in the club. I’d be shocked with the tension at the club if they somehow make it to any European competition

Atletico Be cooking this Transfer window 🧑‍🍳

[kirasindayigaya]

So we live in a world where kiernan drewsbury hall is better than Connor Gallagher okay

[hrenka]

gallager is one of the only class players at chelsea

[fearclassic]

Really hope Chelsea finish bottom half this season

[christycullen]

Chelsea are hilarious. This is what happens when Americans swoop in and think its just a case of buying expensive players.

[erickwesi]

So long story short Chelsea is selling their best player hmm..

[HGGunner]

Haven't they got 47 other midfielders I think they'll be okay

[lukasz]

to summarize:

Chelsea offered him extension but he rejects it.

[shutupMaji]

Hopefully he'll get some minutes, wanted him to play more for England and provide energy to the midfield

[matthewjackson]

The deal is not going thru t the moment

[tankki]

Before sacking poch i think they had a great chance at top 4. Now I feel like top 6 is unrealistic

[t]

It's "Christensen" not "Christiansen"

[cmacpan]

Pure pure pure profit. Simple. Nothing else. He is valued higher than everyone. Who else brings that cash?

[marvinbrando]

I came from the future. He will be playing for Atletico this season.
Believe me.
But dont say a word yet
