According to The Standard, Tottenham's interest in Conor Gallagher is now set to cool after the club managed to secure Archie Gray from Leeds United.

According to various reports, Spurs have spent PS40m to secure the teenager, with Joe Rodon sealing a permanent move to Elland Road in a separate deal (Fabrizio Romano).

The versatile midfielder was announced at Hotspur Way this morning and has signed a six-year contract with the Lilywhites.

Now that the Leeds star has arrived in N17 and the PSR deadline has passed, it is asserted that Tottenham are now expected to cool their interest in the England international.

However, the publication adds that with Gallagher having just a year left on his deal at Stamford Bridge, a bid from Ange Postecoglou's side is not completely off the table just yet.

Spurs Web Opinion

While Gray is undoubtedly going to evolve into a midfielder in the future, I suspect Ange initially sees him as an option for the inverted right-back role.

This is why I am not convinced that the acquisition of the Leeds star will have much of an impact on Spurs' pursuit of Gallagher.
