Atletico Madrid have finally completed the signing of England midfielder Conor Gallagher from Chelsea for a reported fee of around �33 million.
Conor Gallagher who is currently 24-year-old has committed to a five-year contract with the Spanish La Liga club after a series of back and forth.
With his previous contract set to expire next summer, Chelsea opted to secure a transfer for him this summer to avoid a potential free transfer.

In a reciprocal arrangement, Atletico�s 24-year-old forward Joao Felix is expected to move to Chelsea, with the two clubs agreeing in principle on a fee for the Portuguese international.

Recall that Felix scored four goals in 20 appearances during a loan spell at Chelsea in 2023.

The delay in Gallagher�s move to Spain was linked to Chelsea�s failed negotiations to sign Atletico striker Samu Omorodion. However, the successful agreement for Felix has now enabled Atletico to finalize Gallagher�s transfer.

Gallagher�s football journey has seen loan stints at Charlton, Swansea, West Brom, and Crystal Palace before he established himself in Chelsea�s first team at the beginning of the 2022-23 season.

Conor Gallagher has earned 18 England caps since his debut in 2021 and was part of the national team for both the 2022hasld Cup and Euro 2024.oads/2024/08/Screenshot_20240821-112633.jpg” width=”629″ height=”487″ class=”alignnone size-full” />
