Former Arsenal and Manchester City defender Bacary Sagna believes that Conor Gallagher should turn down a chance to join Tottenham.
Chelsea midfielder Gallagher has often been captain under Mauricio Pochettino and is a fan favourite, as well as an England international.
However, rumours persist over his future. Gallagher has 18 months left on his contract and reports have suggested that the club believe it makes sense to cash in on the player after a period of heavy spending under new owner Todd Boehly.
One club who are said to be keen on the player are Chelsea’s local rivals, Tottenham, who are hoping to maintain their own title challenge going into the second half of the season.
Sagna, however, thinks that it would be best for Gallagher to remain with his current club.
He told Lord Ping : “If I was Gallagher, I would resist a move and keep developing at Chelsea.
“The manager trusts him because he has captained the club on several occasions this season.
“I know that the club may want to sell him to raise money, but if I was him, I would stay. I think he is developing nicely at Chelsea.”
