Blackburn Rovers forward Sam Gallagher is a certainty to leave the club this summer if the words of ex England international, Carlton Palmer are to be believed. In what we believe is a bizarre connection of Gallagher to the Swans we now hear an estimated value for the player.

With a poor injury legacy at Rovers and a none too impressive scoring record to boot certain quarters are valuing Gallagher at eight million pounds. As every single Swansea follower knows there’s no way the club would ever go to that figure. In fact if the Swans were a Premier League club they wouldn’t. Ipswich Town are said to be interested, why ? God only knows. Carlton has joined in with this eight million estimate for Gallaghers’s services and at that price nobody will surely go for him ?

We covered Sam Gallagher the other day, a full fact checked profile on the player.

That’s here —> Gallagher profile

That profile contained a full breakdown of information on Gallagher and at no point did we ever think such a high value would be put on his head. Now, of course this is just an estimation by people who don’t write the cheques and who don’t put money in to the game via a football club. However, even at half even seventy five percent off that price the Swans wouldn’t go for him. We think we can discount these rumours if that price is a starting point, even if it’s the ceiling price.

No thanks Blackburn, not at any level.
