In between following England's preparations for the UEFA Europa League matches, Gallagher opened up and shared his heartfelt account of his move from Chelsea to Atletico Madrid this summer. The young England midfielder, who joined the La Liga giants for a fee of £33.7 million, a decision that not only marks a new chapter in his career, but is also accompanied by deep nostalgia and gratitude for the years gone by.
Gallagher began by clarifying rumors about his lack of skill level at Chelsea, where he firmly believes that his performances were worthy of recognition. In particular, he thanked former manager Mauricio Pochettino for his trust and support, and it was this trust that allowed him to gain valuable appearances at Chelsea and win the recognition of the fans. However, reality is always full of variables and Gallagher was eventually forced to leave his beloved Chelsea due to the club's need for financial balance.
Gallagher showed maturity and poise in the face of this sudden change of heart. He understands and accepts Chelsea's decision, and at the same time expresses his heartfelt gratitude to the club and the youth academy for their training. In his opinion, Chelsea is not only a great club, but also the cradle of his growth, where he has countless good memories.
The move to Atlético de Madrid is both a new challenge and a great opportunity for Gallagher. He is looking forward to working with the "world-class" coach Simeone, learning different styles of soccer and improving his skills. The special appearance ceremony arranged by Simeone for him has made him feel the passion and expectation of the fans, which makes him full of confidence and hope for his future career.
For Gallagher, the move to Spain will not only help him grow on a personal level, but will also have a positive impact on his career with England. He believes that by being exposed to and learning different styles of soccer, he will be able to become a more well-rounded and better player and make a greater contribution to the England team.
Looking ahead, Gallagher says he will give his all in every game, whether it be for Atletico or England. He is aware that he still has a long way to go and many obstacles to overcome. But he also believes that if he keeps up the hard work and perseverance, he will be able to become an important member of the team and contribute to the team's victory.
Gallagher will represent England in the upcoming UEFA Nations League match away to Ireland. This match is of great significance to him as he has a special emotional bond in Ireland. He is looking forward to meeting this challenge with his teammates and proving his strength and value in action.
