Unexpected! breaking News! Tottenham face two huge hurdles to sign £45m Gallagher from Chelsea

Tottenham tried to sign Gallagher last summer and remain interested in a move for him if they can offload Hojbjerg.

“The player never asked to leave now,” Halgreen said. “He’s very ambitious for Tottenham and Denmark, [and] continuing to improve. His only focus is Tottenham to finish the season well and to help as much as possible.”

Chelsea could still be inclined to accept a bid of around £45m for Gallagher but would rather sell either Armando Broja or Trevoh Chalobah to balance the books.
