Joe Cole want Chelsea Owners Not to Sell Conor Gallagher

Former Chelsea star Joe Cole is asking the club’s owners to keep Conor Gallagher, amid strong transfer theories around the young midfielder.

Gallagher, who has been linked with transfers to Tottenham and Newcastle, could be sold as Chelsea seeks to balance its accounts in obedience with Premier League profit and sustainability norms.

The 24-year-old is out of contract in 2025 and has yet to enter official renewal discussions with the club. Gallagher’s outstanding displays last season, when he was the only Chelsea player to appear in more than 50 games, underline his relevance.

He stood up as a leader, captaining the team during Reece James and Ben Chilwell’s extended absences due to injury.

Joe Cole, realizing Gallagher’s important role, asked the club’s hierarchy to reconsider any plans to sell him.

“If I was sitting in front of the owners, I’d be telling them that Conor is arguably the most important player in that dressing room in terms of what he brings to the club, he understands the club”, Cole told talkSPORT.

“This is before you start talking about his performances on the pitch, because I think the last 5-6 games everyone played really well, everyone was playing well.

“Players come off the bench affecting games but during the difficult times, that’s when you see what our players were really worth, where you know when things are not going well.

“And Conor was always there available, driving his team on going and being grave, getting on the ball.

“I think he’s vital for the club to keep him, I don’t understand the financial side of it.

“I know there’s a benefit to selling players from the academy, and you know, I’ll admit, hands up I don’t understand that side of it.

“But if you are from a purely footballing perspective, he’s in the top three most important players in that dressing room.”

He underlined Gallagher’s versatility and dependability, highlighting his ability to play a variety of midfield roles as well as his amazing perseverance, which allowed him to stay healthy throughout a hard season.

Cole acknowledged Gallagher’s value not only on the field but also in the dressing room, emphasizing the potential loss of a vital role if he is sold.

His appeal to Chelsea’s owners displays a profound admiration for Gallagher’s abilities and a belief in his potential significance at the club.
