TRANSFER GOSSIP COLUMN: Tottenham consider late bid for Conor Gallagher, Miguel Almiron will stay at Newcastle and Juventus forward turns down Everton move

  • The January transfer window closes on Thursday
  • A number of clubs are still hoping to complete deals before the deadline
  • CHRIS SUTTON names his top five Premier League managers of all time It all starts

There are only two days left for clubs to do business in the January transfer window and the chance of late fireworks remains slim.

Premier League clubs have limited their spending this winter, but a number of clubs could still be in control before the deadline.

Among those clubs is Tottenham, who are reportedly considering a late bid for Connor Gallagher. The Chelsea midfielder has long been linked with a move away from Stamford Bridge this month as the Blues attempt to balance the books to comply with Financial Fairplay rules.

While Gallagher could switch clubs before the deadline, Miguel Almiron will not be going anywhere after Al-Shabab failed to meet Newcastle’s asking price of £30 million for the Paraguayan international.

Elsewhere, Armando Broja could also leave Chelsea, while Timothy Weah has rejected a move to Everton.

Below, Mailsport looks at the transfer rumors on Tuesday morning.
