Rumours are swirling around Conor Gallagher, with Newcastle reportedly showing interest in the midfielder currently plying his trade at Atletico. With both teams looking to strengthen their squads, the move could have a massive impact on their seasons going forward. Newcastle remain optimistic, but the deal is not without hurdles. Man Utd, Crystal Palace and Tottenham continue to monitor developments and could yet re-enter the race if negotiations stall or valuation gaps remain unresolved. With 0.86 goals scored per game this season, Newcastle could use more imagination between the lines. Conor Gallagher would be expected to connect play and boost chance creation in advanced areas. Atletico continue to be linked with Cristian Romero, Jadon Sancho and Marc Casado Torras while Newcastle are also rumoured to be tracking Jayden Oosterwolde, Aurelien Tchouameni and Fermin Lopez Marin.
