Tottenham are said to be keeping close tabs on Chelsea midfielder Conor Gallagher, with his future at Stamford Bridge still under serious doubt. The Three Lions international is yet to sign a new deal with Mauricio Pochettino's men, despite being one of the Blues' best performers this season.
Pochettino has remained tight-lipped on the situation thus far but insists the club are doing all they can to keep Gallagher at the club.
"I think he’s doing a fantastic job, he’s working well, he’s helping the club and us and his teammates a lot," said the Argentine earlier this month.
