Manchester United Miss Out on Conor Gallagher Loan Deal
Manchester United’s last-ditch effort to secure Atletico Madrid’s Conor Gallagher on loan fell through on transfer deadline day, leaving manager Ruben Amorim’s midfield options unchanged. The Red Devils targeted the former Chelsea star to address their midfield struggles, exacerbated by injuries to Matheus Cunha and Mason Mount.
However, negotiations stalled over personal terms and transfer fees, scuppering the deal.The failed move adds to United’s challenging start to the 2025-26 season, marked by a humiliating Carabao Cup exit to Grimsby Town.
Amorim, under pressure after a 15th-place finish last season, must now rely on existing players like Bruno Fernandes and Kobbie Mainoo to navigate tough upcoming fixtures against Manchester City and Chelsea. The club’s focus has shifted to other targets, with a reported £18.1m deal for Royal Antwerp goalkeeper Senne Lammens finalized instead.
