Three top-half clubs want to sign Conor Gallagher

Chelsea midfielder Conor Gallagher is attracting interest from three top-half Premier League clubs before the transfer deadline.

The England international has been a key player for the Blues under manager Mauricio Pochettino, but his future at the club remains uncertain.

The London giants need to cash in on players to balance their books and selling Gallagher would be pure profit as he is a club graduate.

Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham United have been long-term admirers of the Englishman and it seems they have revived their pursuit.

Alongside the duo, it could be Brighton & Hove Albion who are looking into a deal for the 23-year-old ahead of this week's deadline.

Gallagher will enter the final year of his contract in July and the Blues seem determined to sell him amid his reluctance to prolong his stay.

The midfielder is eyeing a bumper wage increase to stay with the Blues, but the hierarchy seem reluctant to meet his demands as of now.
