Kerbe: Atletico have asked Chelsea to buy someone from the club to balance the balance, otherwise they will not sign Gallagher【YANNTING】】

Multiple media outlets reported earlier that Chelsea's negotiations with Omorodion had broken down, and according to the latest report of Radio Cobe, Atletico demanded that Chelsea sign one of their non-key players to level the balance, or they will not bring in Gallagher, and even if Gallagher's transfer falls apart, Atletico will still sign Alvarez.

It is understood that Omoro Dion, who won the Olympic title with the Spanish national team in Paris last Friday, will travel to London, but in recent hours, the two sides have terminated negotiations, and subsequently Atletico asked for the player Madrid.

Atletico, meanwhile, are eyeing a deal for Gallagher, with the England midfielder spotted in Madrid last weekend and even pictured inside the Civitas Metropolitano stadium as the two clubs finalise their transfer.

However, for Gallagher to join Atletico and receive a transfer fee of €40m, Chelsea would have to buy a non-key Atletico player for the same amount.

At that point, Felix's name came up and the Portuguese forward did not feature prominently in Simeone's plans, with the team valuing him at €45 million.

So if Chelsea don't pay that €40m sum to buy a player, Gallagher will have to return to London.

Atletico Madrid, meanwhile, are close to finalising a deal for Alvarez, with the Argentina forward having arrived in Madrid and expected to undergo a medical on Monday and, if all goes well, a transfer agreement will be signed between Atletico and Manchester City.

The media also said that even if the deal to bring Gallagher broke down, Atletico would still sign Alvarez.
