Chelsea have accepted a bid worth £33 million (42.42 million) before add-ons from Atlético Madrid for Conor Gallagher after the midfielder rejected a new contract offer to stay at Stamford Bridge. The 24-year-old is yet to agree personal terms with the LaLiga club and will decide his future in the coming days as negotiations continue.
Gallagher has a year left on his existing deal at Stamford Bridge, and the Blues are determined not to lose him on a free transfer when his contract expires next summer, as was the case with both Andreas Christensen and Antonio Rüdiger, who joined Barcelona and Real Madrid respectively in 2022.
