'From all I hear...' - Insider shares Conor Gallagher 'dressing room' reveal amid Tottenham exit latest

Keith Wyness says Gallagher is not a dressing room problem and questions why Spurs would sell him, as Leeds, Everton and Aston Villa circle.

Former Everton chief executive Keith Wyness has defended Conor Gallagher's character amid reports that Tottenham could sell the midfielder in January. Gallagher has started just three Premier League games this season after Spurs invested heavily in midfield over the summer, pushing him down the pecking order.

Wyness told Football Insider's Inside Track podcast that Gallagher is "not a problem in the dressing room or with his own ego" and questioned the logic of an early exit. "Whether the wrong managers are picking him, playing in the wrong way, look, there's a talent there, and he should settle somewhere," Wyness said, noting that Crystal Palace fans had wanted him back after a loan spell.

Wyness also criticised Tottenham's summer sale of striker Will Lankshear to Middlesbrough for a fee rising to £20m, saying the club made a "huge mistake." Lankshear has already scored 13 goals in 13 Championship games, and Wyness believes he could become a £60m player, with Spurs having no buy-back clause.
