Manchester United Step Up Pursuit of Conor Gallagher as Atlético Hold Out for €30 Million

Reports indicate Atlético would only consider a permanent sale at around €30 million, with a loan in January unlikely.

Overview

  • AS reports Manchester United are currently viewed as leading the chase for Gallagher ahead of the winter window.
  • Fichajes-based reporting says Atlético will only entertain offers near €30 million and are not expected to approve a mid-season loan.
  • Gallagher has seen his role reduced under Diego Simeone this season, with five starts and 625 minutes across 18 appearances.
  • Ruben Amorim is described as seeing Gallagher as a strong tactical fit as United evaluate multiple midfield targets on a wider shortlist.
  • Coverage also notes the player is open to a Premier League return to strengthen his England prospects, though any move depends on United meeting Atlético’s valuation.
