Former Chelsea midfielder Emmanuel Petit cannot believe Conor Gallagher could be sold this month.

The Blues midfielder is being linked with Tottenham - and manager Mauricio Pochettino could not rule out Gallagher leaving this month.

Petit, however, told DAZN: "I understand Chelsea's frustration with Gallagher possibly moving to Tottenham, and quite frankly I was surprised to read it in the papers.

"I thought, 'is it a joke?'. What's the point of that after giving him the chance after the loan to Crystal Palace?

"If you want to sell Gallagher because you spent over a billion pounds on new players in one year, then you have no idea what you are doing..."
