Atletico Madrid Missed opportunity!Reveals Atletico Madrid are trying to sabotage the deal to acquire Conor Gallagher
Atletico Madrid have agreed a £33.7million deal to sign Conor Gallagher from Chelsea, with the Blues youngster now in Spain and undergoing the first stages of his medical.
But on August 8, Valencia sporting director Miguel Angel Corona revealed that the Bears hope to cancel Gallagher’s deal because they have already agreed to acquire 21-year-old midfielder Javi Guerra from Valencia to strengthen the team for 21.5 million pounds (approximately 1,010 million baht) on Wednesday. The player is preparing to wait for contact from other teams in the same league. At the same time, it is believed that Gallagher may have turned down the transfer. But it turned out that the next day, the English player unexpectedly accepted a transfer to play in La Liga, causing coach Diego Simeone’s team to be unable to change its plan in time.
