It was very easy, it happened quickly and I&#8217;m ready to step on the pitch.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Spurs have not disclosed the length of his contract, but it is reported that it will run until 2031. <\/p>\n<p>If Gallagher performs well in the second half of the season, he could be forced into England&#8217;s World Cup plans. His last national team appearance was against Senegal in June. He was not included in England manager Thomas Tuchel&#8217;s squad for matches in September, October and November and will be hoping to impress the German ahead of the World Cup in the United States, Canada and Mexico.<\/p>\n<p>Tottenham moved to sign Gallagher amid reports of interest from fellow Premier League team Aston Villa, but they have major injury problems in midfield. <span class=\"LinkEnhancement\">Rodrigo Bentancur<\/span> He recently joined an already absentee list that includes James Madison, Dejan Kulusevski and Mohamed Kudus.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Conor is a top midfielder and we have worked hard to bring him into the squad,&#8221; Spurs coach Thomas Frank said. &#8220;He is still young so there is a lot of room for improvement, but he also has a wealth of experience in the Premier League, La Liga and with the England national team.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Gallagher came through the academy after joining Chelsea aged six. He was the team&#8217;s vice-captain when he moved to Atl\u00e9tico and will play for England at the 2024 European Championship.<\/p>\n<p>Gallagher was 18 months into his five-year contract with Atletico.<\/p>\n<p>___<\/p>\n<p>AP Soccer: <span class=\"LinkEnhancement\">https:\/\/apnews.com\/hub\/soccer<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/gallagher-tottenham-atletico-madrid-7b4da1cd4c3c2e6172fa92eabf5f06ce\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LONDON (AP) \u2014 Conor Gallagher returned to English soccer on Wednesday, signing with Tottenham from Atletico Madrid for a reported 40 million euros (about $46.5 million). world cup. 25 year old midfielder left Chelsea His move to Atletico in the summer of 2024 is primarily to help his boyhood club comply with the Premier League&#8217;s<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":20356,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-20355","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-soccer"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Conor Gallagher joins Tottenham from Atletico Madrid for $46 million - EPL VIP \u2013 Latest English Premier League News &amp;
