CONOR GALLAGHER has arrived in Spain to complete his move to Atletico Madrid.
The out-of-favour Chelsea star touched down in Madrid in the early hours of Thursday morning after taking a private jet from London.
He was filmed signing autographs and taking pictures with fans upon his arrival at the airport.
Gallagher is set to complete his medical with Atletico Madrid later today.
Chelsea accepted a £34million bid from the LaLiga giants last week.
The midfielder was subsequently banished from the first team as club officials attempted to push him out.
He eventually agreed to make the switch on Monday and is now set to pen a five-year deal with Atletico.
Before saying “yes” to Diego Simeone‘s side, Gallagher had received interest from Aston Villa, Tottenham and West Ham.
The 24-year-old rejected a contract offer from Chelsea earlier this summer which led to his first-team banishment.
It left fans furious given his long-term loyalty to the club.
