Chelsea have several players in Germany competing at this summer’s European Championship.
Once the tournament concludes, Chelsea could move some of those players on.
The likes of Conor Gallagher, Romelu Lukaku and Armando Broja, for example, have all been linked with moves away from Stamford Bridge.
However, nothing is likely to happen until their respective countries are finished participating at Euro 2024.
Who is interested in Romelu Lukaku, Armando Broja and Conor Gallagher?
Lukaku, Broja and Gallagher all look to have suitors.
Napoli are thought to be keen on Lukaku, though it has been reported that they only want to sign the striker on a loan deal.
Broja also seems to have admirers in Serie A. It has been claimed that Juventus are watching him at the Euros.
Finally, Gallagher appears to have caught Atletico Madrid’s attention. According to Relevo, the Spanish club have asked Chelsea about the midfielder’s situation.
Atletico Madrid move could suit Conor Gallagher
Gallagher is probably Diego Simeone’s dream midfielder.
His Atletico team are renowned for being defensively sound and hard working. The Englishman would fit in perfectly.
As per FBref, Gallagher made 85 tackles in the Premier League last season. Only 12 players managed to make more than the 24-year-old.
He also made 43 interceptions, again putting him in the top 15 players.
It is obviously not too often you see an England international moving abroad, while Atletico may not be able to afford the Chelsea star. According to the Daily Mail, the Blues value Gallagher at £50m.
But if the Three Lions player does have to leave Stamford Bridge this summer, a move to Atletico could benefit all parties.
Of course, it is not impossible that Gallagher ends up remaining in west London. It was recently reported that he could yet be offered a new deal. His current one expires next year, hence all of the speculation surrounding his future.
For now, though, Gallagher will just want to concentrate on Euro 2024.
