Report: Man United frontrunners to sign 25-year-old La Liga star in January
Briefly

"The Atletico Madrid midfielder has been linked with a return to the Premier League, and a report from Fichajes claims that Manchester United are the leading candidates to sign him. The opportunity to return to England is an appealing option for the player. It remains to be seen whether Manchester United can bring him back to England during the January transfer window. He would be a quality acquisition for the club."
"They will not be able to provide him with European football this season. However, they are one of the biggest clubs in the world, and the opportunity to join them can be hard to turn down. They will be hoping to get back to the top of English football once again, and they need quality players in order for that to happen."
Manchester United are reported as leading candidates to sign Conor Gallagher from Atletico Madrid, with the player open to a Premier League return. The move would bolster midfield quality, depth, physicality, defensive cover and drive. Gallagher has proven Premier League experience with Chelsea and Crystal Palace and is described as a reliable performer at the peak of his career. Manchester United cannot offer European football this season but remain an attractive destination due to stature. Negotiations with Atletico Madrid and the player's preferences will determine whether a January transfer can be completed.
