Chelsea’s Conor Gallagher Conundrum
Fabrizio Romano has been reporting on Chelsea’s Conor Gallagher situation, revealing that the Blues are looking for a hefty price tag of over £50m. This comes after interest from Aston Villa and Tottenham, who were considering Gallagher as a top target last summer.

Barcelona’s Midfield Pursuit
FC Barcelona is scouring the market for a new quality midfielder to reinforce their squad before next season. Joshua Kimmich has been a top target, but they’re also looking at other options, including Amadou Onana of Everton and Bruno Guimaraes of Newcastle United.

However, Barcelona sporting director Deco believes that a deal for Onana would be ‘impossible’ due to Everton’s high valuation. Guimaraes is also seen as an expensive option, with a release clause in his contract that might be out of Barcelona’s reach.
