Conor Gallagher Transfer from Chelsea to Aston Villa
Conor Gallagher was subject to a bid from Atletico earlier this month amid interest from Aston Villa. He flew to Madrid to finalize the transfer, only for it to collapse as Samu Omorodion turned down the proposed swap deal. Gallagher had met Atletico chiefs, players, and even had a tour of the Metropolitano stadium before flying back. Chelsea rescued the deal by offering £40m to sign Joao Felix.
