On fire Premier League talent not at Chelsea because of Conor Gallagher

Aston Villa’s Jhon Duran has been the talk of the Premier League this season and the in-form striker could have been displaying his talent at Chelsea had it not been for Conor Gallagher. 

The Blues have held a long-term interest in the Colombian star tracing back to the January transfer window and they revisited the idea of signing the 20-year-old during the summer.

According to Fabrizio Romano, Chelsea were close to signing Duran before the Euros in June with talks said to have reached the advanced stages with Aston Villa.
