Mauricio Pochettino leaving Chelsea could have had a direct correlation with the future of Conor Gallagher
Perry Groves believes former Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino was not happy with Chelsea trying to get rid of Conor Gallagher, and that might be one of the reasons Pochettino departed, as reported on talkSPORT.
The former Arsenal player also believes Gallagher is fully capable of declining the transfer himself since the 24-year-old adores the club and wishes to play for Chelsea.
Conor Gallagher has long been linked with a move this summer, despite having started 50 of 51 games for the now-departed Mauricio Pochettino.
That is despite the 24-year-old having only a year left on his deal at Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea are not the only Premier League club concerned about the prospect of undertaking transfer transactions that they would not normally consider.
In these instances, everyone’s attention is drawn to the academy because of the pure profit these players may bring to the team.
Villa have identified Gallagher as a serious target as they seek to strengthen their team in readiness for the Champions League next season.
The Villans will be playing in their first European season since 2010, and their first in Europe’s top league in 41 years.
The London club is unwilling to offer Gallagher a new contract, and he might be moved this summer.
The former Crystal Palace loanee has developed as one of Mauricio Pochettino’s most essential players.
