Football rumours: Tottenham, Villa and Atletico in race for Conor Gallagher
What the papers say
Tottenham, Aston Villa and Atletico Madrid are in a three-way battle to sign Chelsea midfielder Conor Gallagher who is worth around £50million, according to the Daily Mail. The England international scored five goals with seven assists for the Blues last season.
Despite Spanish outlet Marca saying Manchester United have joined Liverpool in the race for 18-year-old Lille centre back Leny Yoro, the Daily Mail says United are unlikely to make a bid for the teenager. Real Madrid are reportedly most likely to secure Yoro’s signature.
Manchester City are set to hold talks with manager Pep Guardiola over his future, according to the Telegraph.
