Gallagher: The Metropolitano's New Idol
Conor Gallagher has become a key player in Cholo Simeone’s scheme, proving that his signing was a resounding success. He arrived at the Metropolitano with the ‘Pitbull’ label, but has evolved into a player with arrival and vision of the game.
His goal against Rayo Vallecano and the penalty he caused against Sevilla are proof of his offensive impact. Simeone has compared him to the Koke of his beginnings, highlighting his work, recovery and ability to generate superiority.
Gallagher has taken over the left lane, surpassing Lino and Riquelme thanks to his dedication and efficiency. The English player has won the affection of the Rojiblancos fans with his ambition and commitment.
Adapted to Simeone’s style, Gallagher has found his place at Atlético, proving that he did not come on vacation. Despite initial difficulties with the language, he is a very popular player in the locker room. His performance on the field, with goals and assists, is valued by the sports management. Gallagher has triumphed at Atlético as Trippier did before, establishing himself as a key player for the team’s present and future.
