Chelsea midfielder Conor Gallagher's transfer to Atletico Madrid has become really dangerous.
European transfer market expert Fabrizio Romano said on his personal SNS on the 13th (Korea time), "Chelsea asked Gallagher to return to London. The flight is booked. Chelsea sees all deals as separate negotiations. The same is true of the proposed João Félix negotiations last Sunday.'
Chelsea are trying to sort out Gallagher somehow this summer. Why did Chelsea, who tried to sell Sunggol Youth, ask Gallagher, who had all the transfer procedures completed, to come back.
The situation is complicated. First of all, Gallagher left Chelsea this summer and was confirmed to move to Atletico Madrid. There was also a report from the BBC. Chelsea have agreed with Atletico to sign Gallagher for a transfer fee of 33 million pounds (about 57.7 billion won). With only Gallagher's decision remaining, Gallagher ultimately decided to go into the arms of Diego Simeone.
Reporter Romano also said Gallagher will head to Atletico, attaching 'HERE WE GO' when the transfer is completed. Gallagher headed to Madrid, Spain, as Chelsea and Atletico negotiated transfer fees and Gallagher's personal agreement were all completed. He reportedly arrived at Atletico, conducted medical tests, and signed a contract. It was really just the final announcement left.
But everything went wrong. The reason is that the negotiations of Samu Omorodion, which Chelsea tried to recruit from Atletico, were completely nullified. Atletico decided to receive 40 million euros (about 60 billion won) from Chelsea when selling Omorodion. I tried to get Gallagher through the money.
Omorodion, whose transfer to Chelsea has been agreed, has a physical problem in the process of undergoing a medical test, and Chelsea demanded a change of conditions in the Omorodion negotiations. As Atletico refused to accept this, the transfer of Omorodion was finally canceled.
In the end, Atletico had no cash flow to recruit Gallagher. Gallagher's transfer cannot be completed. In response, Chelsea instructed Gallagher, who is staying in Madrid, Spain, to return to London, England for now.
Reporter Romano said in a follow-up report on the 14th that "Gallager is now returning to London on a private plane. Chelsea wanted him back because Atletico's contract is still pending. All work was completed between Gallagher and Atletico, and medical tests and contracts were completed, but there was only a final signature. This transfer situation is all open" he said.
Gallagher will not want to come back to Chelsea. Gallagher will not be able to train with first-team players when he returns to Chelsea. Since he is on the release list, he is prohibited from entering during first-team training and must train with youth players. If Atletico's transfer fails, it will have to wait for the new team to offer it again.
