Atletico Open to January Exit for Conor Gallagher as Man United and Spurs Lead Pursuit

Reports indicate Atletico want around €30m, with his £200,000-a-week pay likely to determine if a loan can be structured.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets report Gallagher has been told he can leave this month after discussions about his limited minutes under Diego Simeone.
  • Manchester United and Tottenham are described as the frontrunners, ahead of other Premier League suitors cited in the reporting.
  • Atletico are said to prefer a permanent sale at about €30m, which is viewed as favoring Tottenham if that stance holds.
  • Coverage suggests United are exploring a loan, but any temporary move hinges on how much of the wages Atletico would subsidize.
  • Gallagher has started four of 18 La Liga appearances this season, and a return to the Premier League is framed as a bid to secure regular minutes before the 2026 World Cup.
