What the papers say
Liverpool have shown interest in Chelsea midfielder Conor Gallagher as Jurgen Klopp hopes to take advantage of the sacking of coach Graham Potter and the Chelsea’s Financial Fair Play requirements, the Independent reports. Gallagher, 23, has played 25 games in the Premier League this season scoring one goal and would inject energy into Liverpool’s midfield.
The Leicester Mercury reports sacked Chelsea manager Graham Potter could replace Brendan Rogers at Leicester City. Potter, who was at Chelsea for only seven months, could provide the Foxes with a quick solution as they fight to avoid relegation.
Ex-Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino, former Bayern Munich boss Julian Nagelsmann and Fulham manager Marco Silva are all being discussed as Potter’s replacement at Chelsea, the Mirror reports.
