Enzo Maresca, the head coach of Chelsea, has allegedly said that Leicester’s midfielder could be a viable option to take Conor Gallagher’s place in the starting lineup. As Gallagher approaches the last year of his contract at Stamford Bridge, there is still a lot of speculation about his future.
During a challenging season the previous year, Conor Gallagher was without a doubt one of Chelsea’s top players. Due to his intense club performances, Pochettino selected the homegrown midfielder almost automatically, and he is anticipated to be included in England’s Euro 2024 squad.
Aston Villa has initiated talks with Gallagher and Chelsea. Teamtalk claims that Tottenham has spoken with Gallagher’s representation and is ready to come in strong with a bid at the appropriate moment.
Leicester City midfielder Dewsbury-Hall might replace Gallagher at Chelsea
The Sun claims that in the event that Gallagher departs, Chelsea’s new head coach, Enzo Maresca, has recommended a replacement. Knowing that Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall impressed the Italians in the Championship the previous season, it’s thought the Blues are keeping an eye on him. Dewsbury-Hall chose to stay with Leicester City despite their relegation from the Premier League the previous season, and he scored 12 goals and provided 15 assists.
According to the source, Leicester is not expected to let Dewsbury-Hall go cheap and will only consider bids for the midfield player that total at least £40 million. But Leicester’s financial predicament might compel the team to sell for less, which would appear to benefit Chelsea and Brighton & Hove Albion, who have also shown interest.
