Southampton

In April 2012 he joined Southampton amidst reported interest from fellow Premier League clubs Everton and Newcastle United. The striker made his debut for the Southampton first team on 6 November 2013 in the League Cup against Sunderland, coming on as a 79th-minute substitute for Gastón Ramírez. After scoring a second-half hat-trick against local rivals Portsmouth in a 7–0 victory in the FA Youth Cup in December, Gallagher continued to make semi-regular substitute appearances for the first team, before scoring his first senior goal against Championship side Yeovil Town in the FA Cup on 25 January 2014. He made his full senior debut for the club on 28 January when he started in a league match against leaders Arsenal, coming close to scoring his first league goal on a number of occasions. He scored his first Premier League goal on 15 March 2014, in a 4–2 win against Norwich City. On 10 May 2014, Gallagher was awarded with a long-term contract extension with the Saints until the summer of 2018.

Following his successful loan to Blackburn Rovers, Gallagher signed a new improved four-year contract with Southampton on 1 July 2017.
Loan to Milton Keynes Dons

On 29 July 2015, Gallagher joined Championship side Milton Keynes Dons on a season-long loan. Gallagher made his debut for MK Dons in a 4–1 win away to Rotherham United on 8 August, providing an assist within four minutes.
