Mauricio Pochettino has now told Chelsea they can hand 23-

Mauricio Pochettino, Chelsea’s manager, supports the club’s intention to offer Conor Gallagher a new contract, according to reports. Chelsea is looking to commence discussions with Conor Gallagher regarding an extension, and Mauricio Pochettino has authorized the proposition to secure the midfielder’s long-term commitment. Gallagher’s current contract is set to expire in 2025, making the prospect of an extension a logical step.

The move to extend Gallagher’s contract is well-founded as he has been a prominent figure in the team this season, having started in every Premier League game. Mauricio Pochettino’s endorsement of Chelsea’s strategy to secure Gallagher’s future at the club aligns with his recent comments on the significance of cultivating an English core at an English club. He emphasized the importance of preserving the club’s identity, which includes the presence of English players.

Gallagher has performed admirably during the current campaign, notably standing out as a dynamic and combative presence in the midfield for Chelsea. According to WhoScored, the 23-year-old ranks second in tackles per game, averaging 2.8 tackles per match this season. His exceptional work rate has made him a key contributor to the team’s performance.

Mauricio Pochettino insists Chelsea must rebuild trust with supporters.

While no formal agreement has been reached at this point, should the England international decide to sign a new contract, it would undoubtedly be a testament to his deserving of such a commitment. If Gallagher is content with not always being a guaranteed starter under Pochettino, especially with the competition from players like Enzo Fernandez and Moises Caicedo, it is highly likely that he will extend his tenure at Stamford Bridge. Given his strong start to the season, it appears that an extension could be on the horizon in the near future.
