Gallagher to Liverpool transfer claim made by Romano

Liverpool have been linked with a move for Chelsea midfielder Conor Gallagher

The Reds have been reported to be interested in a number of midfielders this summer as the Premier League season nears its conclusion.

Newcastle United is also involved in the transfer, reports say, while Chelsea are believed to have a preference for the player's departure.

Speaking in his CaughtOffside column, Journalist Fabrizio Romano said: "“I’m aware there has been talk of Liverpool, Newcastle and others eyeing up Conor Gallagher. His departure this summer is a possibility, but nothing clear yet on clubs approaching him. There’s nothing advanced at this stage.

“Chelsea will consider bids as they need to sell some players but nothing is 100% decided yet.”
