The former Crystal Palace and West Brom loanee ultimately made 50 appearances, in which he scored four goals, in his first season for Diego Simeone’s side. Thanks to that, Simeone gave exorbitant praise.
He said last April, “When we think about him, we think about his youth, energy and intensity in the game. He also kicks the ball very well. It’s never easy for a player who comes from England to adapt to the Spanish championship, with his language… He is very intense in the offensive and defensive game, he gives us a lot.”
Despite playing 27 times and scoring three goals this season, often from the bench, it looks like Gallagher could return to the Premier League.
