Crystal Palace wants to sign Conor Gallagher to replace Eberechi Eze
Crystal Palace is preparing a move for Conor Gallagher after confirming the departure of Eberechi Eze to Arsenal. The midfielder is seen as the perfect reinforcement to fill the gap left by one of the club’s biggest stars.
Eze joins Arsenal
After long negotiations, Eberechi Eze has completed a permanent transfer to Arsenal. The deal leaves Palace short of creativity and drive in midfield, forcing the board to act quickly in the market.
Gallagher back to Selhurst Park?
According to Fabrizio Romano, the Eagles have identified Conor Gallagher, currently at Atlético Madrid, as their top target. The Englishman has a special history with Palace, having shone during a loan spell at the club, where he became a fan favorite.
Palace’s board is eager to bring him back, even considering a loan deal with an option to buy. So far, no official negotiations have been opened, but Atlético has been contacted to understand the terms of a possible transfer.
Palace ready to invest
Club sources believe Gallagher has the profile and Premier League experience to seamlessly replace Eze. The London side is prepared to make a significant financial effort to secure the 24-year-old midfielder this summer.
