      Gallagher has been an important cog in Mauricio Pochettino’s side this season and has attracted the interest of the North London outfit.
      He has even captained the side on multiple occasions after injuries to Reece James and Ben Chilwell.
      But the midfielder, 23, may go in the summer – with a transfer chain bringing Tottenham the money if Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg is sold to Fulham or Bayern Munich.
      Hojbjerg had been the subject of interest for a move away from the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the previous transfer window, but deal never came to fruition.

      Gallagher isn’t the only Chelsea youth graduate that Spurs are looking at a deal for either.
      Tottenham and rivals Newcastle have been told to forget about a move for Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi, who rose through the ranks at Stamford Bridge.
      Spurs are keen on the England centre-back, 23, while Toon have also made an inquiry.
      But the Eagles will not budge in January unless the fee is massive.

      Neither club is likely to have that sort of ready cash, putting them in the queue when the auction for Guehi starts next summer.
      Arsenal and both Manchester clubs like Guehi while Chelsea can match any bid as part of the deal which took him to Palace for £20million in 2021.

      He was selected for friendly matches against Switzerland and Ivory Coast, making his debut in a 2-1 win against the Swiss.
      However, a move away from Palace could hinder his chances of making the Euro 2024.
      A potential big-money move would bring added pressure, and could hinder his form moving before the tournament.

      Man Utd line up £16m alternative to Serhou Guirassy as Stuttgart striker wants Tottenham transfer instead

      by

      They have already lost seven of their opening 17 Premier League games, having been plagued with injuries and a spate of signings failing to match expectations.
      Among them is £72million summer recruit Rasmus Hojlund, who has yet to score domestically.
      And United have been closely watching Bundesliga sensation Guirassy who, by contrast, has already netted 17 times in Germany.
      However, SunSport understands the Guinea striker would prefer a move to Spurs.

      And now Ten Hag has sent scouts to watch Sevilla and Morocco frontman En-Nesyri instead.
      United talent-spotters have monitored him in recent weeks and will be in attendance for Saturday’s LaLiga clash against Atletico Madrid.
      En-Nesyri has been Sevilla’s main man up front since January 2020, helping them to two Europa League crowns.
      And he has been the shining light in a tough season for the Andalusians so far, with the Spanish heavyweights languishing in 14th in the table.

      This term alone he has scored eight goals and created four assists.
      But with Sevilla already out of Europe after a disastrous Champions League campaign, and with qualification next season in major doubt, they could now choose to cash in on their attacking star.
      En-Nesyri is under contract until June 2025, but he could be sold for a fee of around £16m.
      That’s because Sevilla are going through serious financial struggles, having already fired two coaches this season and still having to pay their wages.
      They now want to lower the expenses by selling some of their prime assets in the next few weeks.
      And En-Nesyri fits the bill having also shone for Morocco in last year’s fantastic run to the World Cup semi-final, including a superb winning goal against Portugal in the quarters. More

      But Tosin, who attracted interest from Tottenham and Monaco during the last transfer window, is expected to snub it as he wishes to move on for nothing when the campaign ends.
      At present, Fulham still expect the Manchester City academy product to stay in January despite there only being months remaining on his deal.
      Tosin will be able to agree a pre-contract agreement with foreign clubs from the start of next month.
      Manager Marco Silva described the centre-back as “special” following his side’s penalty shootout win over Everton in the Carabao Cup quarter-finals on Tuesday night.

      Tosin struck the winning penalty and his Portuguese boss added: “He is a key player for us. He is one of the leaders in our dressing room.”
      Silva is believed to have not given up hope that Tosin will have a change of heart before the season ends.
      Tosin has racked up 113 appearances for Fulham since joining from Manchester City in 2020, experiencing both promotion and relegation to and from the Premier League in that period.
      He has missed 11 Prem games this season after groin surgery.

      Spurs have made signing a new centre-back their top transfer priority in January.
      Postecoglou’s side take on Everton on Saturday and will again have to deal with a long-list of absentees.
      The club have found a way to deal with missing the likes of James Maddison and Micky Van De Ven to injury but they will be joined on the sidelines against Everton by Destiny Udogie and Yves Bissouma after they picked up suspensions against Forest. More

      And according to ESPN, they want £50m for the midfielder.

      The Hammers, Spurs and Everton all failed to sign him with bids of around £40m this summer.

      But a slightly higher offer next month could persuade Chelsea to green-light a sale.
      The Blues are determined to sign a new striker in January, with Ivan Toney understood to be on Mauricio Pochettino’s transfer wishlist.
      However, they will need to raise funds by selling players first – and offloading Gallagher would come with the most efficient financial benefits because he is a home-grown player.
      Brentford want up to £80m for Toney, with Arsenal also interested.

      Gallagher has been one of Chelsea’s most consistent players this season
      Gallagher has been with the Blues since the age of eight.
      After graduating from Chelsea’s academy he was sent out on loan four times before finally breaking into the first team last year.
      The midfielder has since made 65 appearances for the West London side.
      He was handed the captain’s armband for the first time in September following injuries to Reece James and Ben Chilwell.
      And Pochettino is now eager for him to stay at the club.
      Discussing Gallagher’s future, the Chelsea boss said: “It is a decision between the player and the club, to be or not to be.
      “He is in the starting XI nearly every game and one of the captains. For me, he is the type of player that the club need to have.
      “He is important because of his Chelsea values. He came from the academy, he loves the club and he is very committed.
      “You can see that on the pitch – he runs, he plays, he fights. He does everything to win. He is a really important player that the coaching staff want to have on the team.” More

      Arsenal chasing £52m-rated Sporting Lisbon star Goncalo Inacio after spate of defensive injuries

      Mikel Arteta’s side have battled several injury issues already this season, especially in defence with full-backs Jurrien Timber and Takehiro Tomiyasu out until the new year.
      Arteta and Arsenal are content with the defensive options they currently have, and would only be prepared to spend again should another serious injury crop up.
      Yet having splashed the cash in the summer – forking out a combined £170m on Declan Rice and Kai Havertz – the North Londoners would prefer to stick rather than twist.
      Centre back duo William Saliba and Gabriel are fully fit for now, while Jakub Kiwior and Ben White also provide alternative solutions in that position.
      READ MORE IN FOOTBALL
      However, Arteta is likely to prioritise reinforcements at the back in the summer with 22-year-old central defender Inacio someone the North Londoners are monitoring.
      Inacio made his senior Sporting debut as a teenager in October 2020 and has risen to become one of the most exciting prospects in the Primeira Liga.
      He has also broken into the Portugal national team under Roberto Martinez, earning his first cap back in March.
      Consequently, Inacio has a £52m release clause in a contract that expires in June 2027 and the Sporting are prepared to hold out for an offer close to that value.

      The likes of Manchester United and Liverpool are also interested in the player, yet Sporting are expecting to keep hold of one of their prized assets until at least the summer.
      Tomiyasu and crocked midfielder Thomas Partey are targeting a January 7 return to face Liverpool in the FA Cup third round before heading off on international duty.
      Tomiyasu [calf] will represent Japan in the Asian Cup from mid-January, while Partey [thigh] could be away for a month as he competes in the African Cup of Nations for Ghana.
      Mohamed Elneny picked up a calf knock away at PSV in the Champions League group stages earlier this month but should also be back soon ahead of Egypt’s AFCON campaign.
      Timber – who has been out since August with an ACL injury – is hopeful of being involved in Arsenal’s Champions League last 16 first leg tie at Porto in mid-February. More

      Everton have also been watching Edwards and the League One promotion-chasers are expecting a fee of at least £4.5m.
      Yet potentially, they will also want more than double that actual fee in add-ons.
      Apart from clubs in the Premier League and Championship, there is also one club in Germany and one in Belgium interested in the centre-back.
      Rangers were also linked in the summer with Peterborough director Barry Fry revealing they had sent scouts to watch the youngster.

      Darren Ferguson’s side are currently second in League One and are unbeaten in five games although are seven points behind leaders Portsmouth.
      West Ham are set for a busy transfer window as David Moyes looks to address the weaknesses in his squad.

      They could also make an approach for Stuttgart defender Dan-Axel Zagadou – though that move could be dependent on the sale of Nayef Aguerd, who could leave for the right price.
      The Hammers could also bolster their defence with the addition of Chelsea outcast Ian Maatsen.
      Maatsen impressed on loan at Burnley in the Championship last season and the Clarets had a £30million bid rejected in the summer. More
