The Spanish team Atlético Madrid has announced the signing of English midfielder Conor Gallagher after reaching an agreement with Chelsea. Gallagher has signed a five-year contract with the club.
Atlético also confirmed that Conor Gallagher successfully passed his medical test ahead of the deal:
“The midfielder underwent and passed the relevant medical examination at the Centro de Medicina Deportiva de Alto Rendimiento Vithas – Invictum at the Hospital Universitario Madrid Arturo Soria.”

The midfielder made his senior England debut in November 2021 and was called up for the 2022 World Cup and this year’s European Championship, where he reached the final with his country.
To date, the 24-year-old has made 18 appearances for the England senior national team.
