Conor Gallagher has landed in Madrid as he finally looks set to complete his move from Chelsea to Atletico Madrid.

Gallagher had agreed personal terms with the Spanish club weeks ago, but the deal fell into limbo after Chelsea ended their pursuit of Atletico forward Samu Omorodion.

The 24-year-old had been waiting in Madrid for his move to be finalised before returning to the UK as an air of uncertainty fell over the deal.

With Diego Simeone's side needing to raise funds in order to complete the deal, Gallagher had been training alone at the Blues' Cobham training base since returning from the Spanish capital.
