Conor Gallagher is set to join Tottenham from Atletico MadridTottenham Hotspur are on the brink of a marquee signing, with Atletico Madrid's Conor Gallagher in their sights. Spurs have ramped up their pursuit of the ex-Chelsea star, despite stiff competition from Premier League rivals Aston Villa. Gallagher is expected to arrive in London early this week to complete his medical and finalise the transfer. Tottenham's readiness to commit to an outright purchase has been instrumental in outmanoeuvring Villa in the race for the midfield maestro. This time around, however, Spurs appear to have gained the upper hand over one of their Premier League adversaries, and it's a move that should prove beneficial for both parties.
