Simeone's words to Conor Gallagher before returning to London: "Let's see if..."

The Argentine coach spoke to the Englishman shortly before he returned to training with Chelsea's youth teams.

Conor Gallagher is still waiting for news about his immediate future at club level, which remains a real mystery. The Briton has experienced a rollercoaster of emotions and situations full of uncertainty about his next destination with the season just around the corner. Without any official confirmation yet from any of the clubs involved, Gallagher has returned to the United Kingdom to continue preparing for the season.

In addition to Gallagher 's own, the uncertainty about what will happen to him is not only in the mind of the English player, but also those of his fans and teammates. Atlético de Madrid is still incredulous after having failed in the first attempt, but they hope to close the deal soon. Being wanted by many Atlético fans, Simeone has a special weakness and dedicated a few words to him in the Englishman's first and only session with the Atlético tracksuit.

Simeone's message to Gallagher before his departure

And if there is one thing Diego Pablo Simeone wants and is clear about, it is the fact that he can count on the services of the English international this season that starts this week. Faced with such uncertainty about the signing of Gallagher , Simeone assured him that everything would be resolved and that they would soon train together again. While waiting to find a way out for him to the Metropolitano , Atlético de Madrid do not stop in their efforts to sign the Englishman.

Gallagher is the type of player who is not afraid of the ball being divided and does not give up in a single game, with endurance being one of his virtues. Dedicated, versatile and eager to come to Atlético , Gallagher must be a reality for the Madrid club in the coming days as all the Atlético fans want. At the expense of being able to close some crucial sale for the club itself, the reality is that the domino effect of this operation was a peculiar event to say the least.

Several code names

The best placed to leave Atlético de Madrid is Joao Félix , who does not want to continue there, as does the club, and for whom they are willing to listen to offers. Although Joao is positioned as the main intermediary so that Gallagher 's transfer can be made official once and for all, a range of options are opening up with other Atlético forwards. With other options on the table, some of them being quite important financially, SamuOmorodion also has something to say.

Fancy Dominoes

The reality is that Omorodion has no place in the first team at Atlético and hopes to find a new destination that is ideal for his development as a professional footballer. With many suitors who are after him, Omorodion knows that an exit could be crucial for his future at club level. While waiting to see how the rest of this transfer window is resolved, we will have to keep an eye on any movement within the red-and-whites and their surroundings.
