Chelsea has been one of the most important teams in the Premier League over the last 20 years. The team has had significant achievements and has been one of the most ambitious projects in the UK. After being taken over by Todd Boehly just last year, Chelsea have had a very different side to what they were used to. So far, the team has spent a considerable amount of money.
According to national and international media, the West London team has spent approximately $400 million this season alone, which makes it an extremely high amount. Nevertheless, the money has not been enough to ensure that the results are given on the court. Until three rounds ago, the team was dangerously close to the relegation places. Meanwhile, Mauricio Pochettino was asking for patience.
Given this, it seems that the board of Chelsea has given continuity to the Argentine coach because they believe in his project. In the same way, the team has had situations that have put them at a disadvantage. Until a few weeks ago, the Stamford Bridge team had accumulated more than 10 injuries. It should be noted that Chelsea is one of the teams that has the most players in its squad.
Similarly, one of the team's most outstanding players despite everything has been Conor Gallagher. The 23-year-old midfielder has been one of the revelations of this season and an important element in Mauricio Pochettino's team. Given this, there have been rumors about a possible departure of the player and not precisely to a European club, but to the Saudi League.
Where would he go?
According to Football Transfers, Al Ettifaq wants to sign Gallagher next summer. Steven Gerrard's team wants to add players who can contribute to the Saudi League. At the moment, a large list of players are currently in Saudi Arabia, including former Premier League players such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino, Henderson, Fabinho among others.
