Conor Gallagher transfer saga rumbles on as pre-season tensions build

Straight Outta Cobham: The Athletic FC's Chelsea show - A podcast by The Athletic

Have Chelsea ever heard of a quiet week? Matt Davies-Adams has got The Athletic's Blues expert Liam Twomey alongside him to reflect on another chaotic week for CFC. We begin with the Conference League draw - with Enzo Maresca's side set to face Braga or Servette in their play-off tie towards the end of the month. Then - the Conor Gallagher transfer chaos continues - with a move to Atlético de Madrid potentially hanging in the balance... We touch base with the latest developments and the unsavouriness that could follow if the deal doesn't go through. There's a look at the latest pre-season exploits over in the USA - including the humbling at the hands of Manchester City which followed signs of improvement against Club América. We'll be back on Monday to begin the build-up to the 2024-25 season in earnest! HOST: Matt Davies-Adams WITH: Liam Twomey & Adam Crafton PRODUCER: Lucy Oliva Learn more about your ad choices.
