SpursMakes bench
Gallagher (illness) is on the bench for Wednesday's match against Atletico Madrid.
Analysis: Gallagher was dealing with an illness, but has woken up on the right side of the bed, fit enough to find a bench spot. He will look to see some useful time from the bench against his former club, as he did play 45 minutes from the bench in the first leg.
Hopeful for Wednesday
Gallagher (illness) is to be assessed further and is a late call for Wednesday's match against Atletico Madrid, according to his club.
Analysis: Gallagher is still battling his illness, leaving him to some testing ahead of Wednesday's match as he enters as a late call. This is rough for the midfielder, as even if he is deemed fit, it appears he will only be limited to a bench spot. He has mainly been a starter since joining the club, starting in seven of his nine appearances while earning an assist.
Missing with illness
Gallagher (illness) is out for Sunday's match against Liverpool. "At this moment, he didn't feel good. We need to adapt, accept the situation and do our best."
Analysis: Gallagher is not with the squad Sunday as he deals with an illness, still not feeling well enough to play against their rivals. He will likely return midweek when UCL action returns, facing Atletico Madrid on March 18.
Doubtful to play Sunday
Gallagher is uncertain to play Sunday against Liverpool due to an illness, according to manager Igor Tudor. "Conor has a fever but we hope he will be ok."
Analysis: Based on Tudor's words, Gallagher could be ready to roll Sunday, and the Spurs desperately need him in midfield since they're already missing Rodrigo Bentancur (hamstring), Yves Bissouma (undisclosed), and Joao Palhinha (head). Gallagher has started in seven of his eight Premier League outings since joining Spurs from Atletico Madrid in the January transfer window.
Assists equalizer Sunday
Gallagher assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal), three crosses (two accurate) and one chance created in Sunday's 2-2 draw versus Manchester City.
Analysis: Gallagher recorded his first goal contribution since joining Spurs Sunday and it came at a crucial time. He made an excellent play to get some space on the right side of the box, whipped in a cross slightly behind Dominic Solanke, but Solanke managed to find the back of the net with a scorpion kick to tie the match at 2-2. It was the only chance Gallagher created, and it was one of two accurate crosses. He also provided some much-needed defensive work in midfield as he won five duels, intercepted three passes, won two tackles and made one clearance in his full 90 minutes of action.
Signs with Tottenham
Gallagher has completed a transfer to Tottenham from Atletico Madrid, according to his new club.
Analysis: Gallagher is heading back to the Premier League after exiting Chelsea just two seasons ago, with the midfielder returning to London with Tottenham. He signed a long-term contract at the age of 25, potentially set to serve a decent tenure with the club, depending on his play moving forward. He has only started in four of his 19 appearances this season with Atletico Madrid, while scoring two goals, earning limited time despite starting in over half of his appearances in the 2024/25 season. The expectation for the versatile midfielder is to likely see minutes right away, as injuries plague the midfield, and he joins the club immediately as one of their top options.
