The England international was the subject of bids from Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham United last summer, but neither of them met the £50 million valuation set by the Blues.

As a result, Gallagher continued at the club. He has since established himself as one of the main players under manager Mauricio Pochettino , captaining them on a number of occasions.

Gallagher has been linked with a move away from the Blues in recent weeks, but reports claim that the midfielder will only decide his future at the end of the ongoing league campaign.

The Blues graduate will enter the final year of his contract in the summer. If the hierarchy don't reward him with a new and lucrative deal, he could make the decision to pursue a new challenge.

Spurs are likely to return for his services at the end of the campaign.
