Tottenham continues to make bold moves in the transfer market, having already secured pivotal signings and now setting their sights on a third crucial addition.

Chairman Daniel Levy is taking decisive steps to meet the requirements outlined by manager Ange Postecoglou, recognizing the need for reinforcements within the squad. The acquisition of Timo Werner on loan and the successful capture of highly-rated Genoa center-back Radu Dragusin showcase the club’s proactive approach.

However, the transfer business is far from over, as The Independent reports that Spurs are actively pursuing a midfielder as their next target. The top name on their list is Chelsea midfielder Conor Gallagher, with the club reportedly pressing ahead with their plans to secure the dynamic number 8.

Postecoglou is specifically interested in a versatile midfielder who can operate in the number 8 role and provide reliable backup for James Maddison if necessary. Gallagher fits the bill, and Chelsea is open to selling him for the right price, rumored to be around £50m.

Despite Chelsea’s willingness to part ways with Gallagher, manager Mauricio Pochettino seems to have reservations. Pochettino holds the midfielder in high regard, recognizing his leadership qualities as Gallagher currently captains the side in the absence of Reece James. There are reports that Pochettino envisions building his team around the talented midfielder.

While the asking price is substantial and Pochettino appears hesitant to part with Gallagher, it raises questions about the likelihood of Spurs successfully securing the Chelsea captain. The situation suggests that a potential move may be more plausible in the upcoming summer transfer window, keeping Spurs fans hopeful for further developments.
